Gourd, lol to that image of Dany getting chased by security bells for nils in his coat lining. I think I'd rather my MG flowers each have their own bell sound to harmonize with each other when the wind blew, though. hum

Anyhoo, Dany, regarding your Silky Blue here - http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=8142645 , attached is one of the Silky Blues from my 2007 garden for comparison. Did yours produce tan seeds?

Of the 3 Silky Blue seeds from Emma that I sowed, the one I'm sharing an image of produced tan seeds (as did a more turquoisey one), while the third one, a navy blizzard that threw a double flower one morning (no picture) produced dark seeds.

I think Gourd has noticed that sometimes, the color of seeds for a line or cultivar of seedlings can skip generations. Gourd and Dany, have your grow-outs shown any more evidence of this?

ps - As usual, Dany, your MGs are stupendously beautiful and interesting - thanks for sharing.
