Gossypiifolia

My foetida var. gossypiifolia is blooming! I walked out this morning and the bud, which I didn't expect to open until Sunday or so was waiting for me in all its glory. The pink really stands out with all the blues and purple flowers that normally dominate the yard.
The banding is really strong, almost hirsutissima-like, but the petals are more white than pink. Here's a side view:
And the way it looked yesterday:
My other gossypiifolia hasn't set buds yet, so I couldn't pollinate for pure strain seeds, but I tried with some incarnata pollen from current blooms. I also took the gossypiifolia pollen and applied it to some incarnata and Incense. I'm not expecting anything, but I could be surprised.
