there are two or three seedlings from this cross. size and growth wise the other seedling seems stronger. color wise this one has a deep rich purple the other one lacks. so the possibility of crossing this one back to its sibling offers some possibilities. it is worth a try. first the dark purple seedling and then an image of its sibling…

Seems like a good idea.
I think so. I will get right back to you on the results in 2 or 3 years. In the mean time and I do mean ‘mean’ as in nasty I am going to try to get used to a new PC and W11. It will only hurt when I blink.
While you are doing that, I’m going to put a needle in my eye. I’ll bet I’ll have a better time.
Make sure to include the drops and ruffles
That would be a grievous miscarriage of judgement !
