the 3rd picture is the original flower& 1st bloom.
The striped sport ones.I tied yarn on those,but I grew one of the striped pods out and got the 1st flower.But have read that its 'normal' for it to shoot them striped beautys.I just couldn't believe text...........I had to grow a seed& see was pretty much like original,but a lil blotchy& all the flowers that have bloomed from that 1 lone seed have looked that way.I'd have to count but believe have had about 9 flowers.
So comfrey,you'd get mostly flowers like the 3rd,but would get some sports as well.some days is sports only or a mix of both.I kinda preferred the sport& the batch that I DIDN'T grow this year has a purple flecked baggie to grow....so who knows?That may be it.
I also have this lost tagged one.
I'm not 100% sure....but believe its Heian Kagayaki JMG.I re grew this one cause was in the worst soil,worse spot& had only gotton 2 blooms.So I crossed fingers& chose better& hopefully will get some more seeds.It has large flowers& is verigated.
Their are some with striped/streaked flowers with variegated foliage,that will bloom from seed like that. Benigasuri does but its pink with the white streaks so does not stand out as much& has variegated foliage as well.1 other I grew (thats mislabled...)wisteria tie-dye
Its speckled flowers& don't set seed well.
Rainie~Grow your MGs in hanging baskets.you can control them somewhat better.I grow my JMG in hanging baskets so can control them from cross pollinateing easier.I grew 2 in ground& will add 2 more inground to let run wilde.(blue blizzrd is a ground candidate for next year)
