Here are two flowering. The one on the left is made with a regular longifolium,the one on the right is with the alba form. The alba form is a bigger flower,the other has benn flowering for awhile and has a couple of branches.
What Robert and Tom had to say explains to us what is going on.
Best thing to do is make some more crosses using yellows on them and see what we get.

Interesting. Other than size, I don't see any significant difference in colours.

Nice EY Russell!
Yes we will have to work on that...

I like the shape of the one made with the album better. Nice blooms!

 

[biothanasis]

the alba has better size and shape. But I would like to have an alba shape with the markings normal form has on the pouch...

I agree. So what is the point of using the yellow form?

 

[NYEric]

Color progression. The Don Wimber flavum should be interesting.

Hopefully we get more yellow saturation

I would think so. It's surprising to me that that is not happening. Yet.
