Re: A new sport
ok, using the real computer now so let's have a look 
The standard flower.
The sport.
It's not awesome but I have not seen it before on any of this variety since I have grown them.

Lovely flower Damien
It will be interesting to see if all the subsequent flowers exhibit the same features.

Now to the serious side of things & a new sport is always awesome. Now to propagate & make sure that it carries across into the progeny & isnt just a freak single bloom

Re: A new sport
Hmmm, stable sports are not always a definite with Satsuki.
I have seen some crackers (literally) before but they were not stable.
Oops, the variety is Gunpo pink.
The sport has less of a ruffled margin and is around half the size (30mm across) of the standard flower which could make it a little more suitable for hot conditions.
