Finally, something other than yellow! I had watched this seedling since the first bud appeared and notice the blackish, dark bud color. To my surprise, it opened in the burgundy/red spectrum with lavender blue beards. The following pictures will show more than I can accurately explain. Height is 12"; 5 stems. (Parentage: Chanted X Chubby Cheeks.)

This is the first picture taken the morning it opened. As usually happens, it had stormed during the night with heavy rains and high winds. I was determine to show an actual untouched picture which I feel gives a more accurate representation. To be honest I must admit I had to adjust my ISO settings to compensate for the heavy overcast, cloudy skies.

Finally a little dab of direct sunlight! This helps bring out the true colors early in the day. I have found that strong sunlight around mid-day and early afternoon distort and fade many dark colors.
