I was wondering if any of you were looking at the seeds from seed packages...

1. Do you grow the odd ones, very big or very small, unusually shaped....
2. When you grow them, do you tag them with a remark?
3. Can you recognize from the seed shape if they are tricolor, purpurea, or nil?
4. If a seed is light-coloured, can one tell if it is going to be white, red or cream, just from the colour of the seed....
5. Let's say you pollinate a white flower (light-coloured seed) with the pollen from a blue coloured seed (dark), will the pollen determine the colour of the seeds in your F1 and make them all dark, since blue is dominant over white?
