I agree that good plant habit could be an effective trait. It wouldn\'t have to be small, but I would like nice shaped bushes for plants.

\"...Especially the pink ones with the yellow lips!\"

The original mutant (pictured) on which these were based had tan tips. I like the edge color, as long as it isn\'t brown or tan. Which, unfortunately, it is brown or tan on a fair number of my \"in-progress\" Razzle Dazzles. I am trying to breed the brown/tan edges out of the strain. Colored edges are fine with me, and so are just solid colors.
