The Wendy used in these crosses was that of Schuurman ( NZ). The variation this little mini gives when crossed with a single pollinator is unbelievable, these are the ones which were registered , there are however more which are unnamed and used for breeding due to their fertility being very good.

Offspring of Wendy whether it be F1 or F2 , have a great tendency to create sports.
Oh, those are luscious! I think I like Byzantium best, that flower form is just… wow! Good job!
Byzantium really has an appealing form, and that color compliments it perfectly.
This variation of colour and bloom structure is also shown in the F2 offspring of Wendy. These are photographs of Elara X Queen Elizabeth.

Warren, how about throwing them on our forum, I bet you get a lot of replies, I will
Unfortunetly the small run of OP Qween Elizabeth seedlings here have mildew bad, to the point of tattered leaves and Altisimo seedlings are not much better. This year pollen is going to play a greater roll. Neil
Fine.
I’ll get me a Queen Elizabeth…
