Beautiful Moti :-))
Don't think they will come true Katarina ,Dawn sent me seed for one similar colour to this they are all flowering now ,orange !!!!!, a very lovely orange but not good next to a pink delphinium lol, have since read that they do revert, best way to get more plants is root cuttings in winter :-)

I had to update you Moti, I've actually got one plant opened that is the colour it should be yaaay, one out of heaven knows how many lol,but at least I can increase from it now when it gets bigger, I must post a question about these I read they rarely come true from seed and all the ones I've grown from seed collected by myself or sent to me by friends haven't so how do they get the seed you buy???? I've grown both 'Coral Reef' and 'Checkers' from seed ok I did get one bright red one from the Checkers seed but the rest were the right colour so how does that work??

The answer Simbad is.........I dont know..lol..
Perhaps someone on Goy could answer....I have only ever taken basal cuttings, that way you can be sure of the variety...:>)
