AT LAST (McAllister, 1993) OGB- White standards have faint lilac veins around the edges. Buff falls are covered with an intense network of fine mulberry veining around a mulberry beard. From Casa Vicente X Joint Venture, the type of cross that can produce both functional 1/4-breds and functional 1/2-breds, but registered as a 1/4-bred on the basis of its breeding behavior. So far, it has steadfastly refused my attempts to cross it with 1/2-breds, but it's produced a few seedlings from tetraploid aril and 3/4-bred pollen (Tribe of Judah). The title of the old gospel song seemed apt for this new development. I certainly wasn't the first to cross 1/4-breds back to 1/2-breds, but this was the first of my seedlings from those many experiments that I thought worthy of introduction. Some of them prove to be fully functional 1/2-breds - which must, of course, be judged against other 1/2-breds from more conventional lines and usually fall short of the mark. Some prove to be rather unimpressive 1/4-breds. "At Last" is that fortunate exception: a 1/4-bred with more of the aril "look" than most conventional 1/4-breds. Its intricate dotting and veining is more typical of 1/2-breds, its flaring form more typical of the 1/4-breds.
