From what I can read a double X a double mostly gives deformed blooms. (Yes how sad is that) so you take a hybrid with Parents you like and cross it back to a strong species type with the colour you are after to "enrich the genes" so to speak ...a good double crossed with a good single (look to the parents for strong colour).
Or cross with others that you enjoy.It's been said that the Suav Gene is mostly white so start breeding away from that if you want colour ...don't fret, every plant is unique when grown from seed.You have done so well and you have a gift for gardening ...I know you will have a go ...here look at my table this morning.
