[1] Seeds were soft and may not have been good.

[2] Cross onto histrioides gave 11 of these, plus one each were from two crosses onto diploid danfordiae.

[3] Sophenensis x danfordiae pod parent with pollen from other Retics.

[4] Sophenensis x danfordiae clones intercrossed (should bring out a wider range of expressions in the F₂ generation).

[5] Not counting those of bulbs given out for testing: ?# 1997; 20 in 1998

[6] Compound = multi generation within danfordiae, sophenensis, and Çat

[7] Sophenensis x danfordiae F₂ pod parent with pollen from other Retics.
