| I planted my beds 9 years ago.Why suddenly does a plant this age, that has been popping up Pink little look alikes from seed for several years, start popping up green stemed white flowered little one out of nowhere? I imagine that it started last year as this is the first year the flowers started? Will these be more hardy then the other white ones? |

| Occasionally something different just shows up, either from genetic mutation or recombination, it will probably have many of the characteristics of the parent. |

| Maybe there was an error replicating the pigment gene, like albinism, or maybe there's a new pollenizer in town. Who knows? |
