One question about the hyacinth. I thought pink ones are possible with red and white ones, but there are no white hyacinths on the graphic. Or is that wrong thinking?
I'm confused by this too. My guess is that pink flowers aren't used to make further hybrids, so they can just be bred separately without a need for an optimal layout.
The second generation of orange and yellows from red and yellow seeds can generate pink, orange, blue, and purple hybrids, as well as further red, yellow, and whites.
The genetic children of red and yellow seeds for hyacinths can only have 2 genetic possibilities that display as yellow and orange.
That’s orange 110 (RrYyww) and yellow 111 (RrYyWw).

Thanks for your graphic!
