Update; the fourteen seedlings from this pod are all living straight and strong, and none were albino; otoh, none are showing variegation either. I still have big reasons to look forward to some wonderful new flowers! ;) I'm so very glad I didn't toss these immature white seeds! These are the only ones which sprouted, (several pods fell early) which indicates they were from the pod that was pollenated 2-3 weeks before the others, by Bonnie Jean. But I'll keep the cross as "unknown" for the record.

The other eight pods are holding to the plant well, still very firm. I'm really looking forward to a good ripe one!

Lots of questions to be answered by these young'uns yet, and their future half siblings, and their descendants. Whichever of these bloom first gets crossed both ways to the parent plant!

(I LOVE experiments!!)
