    I would be interesting in hearing why you believe this is Canyon Way. The one image I could find of Canyon Way 'Southern Cross' exhibits a full, ruffled lip consistent with the Bryce Canyon parent. This flower is much more consistent with Janet (intermediate x pumila).

    This is a direct parent of Rlc. Canyon Way 'Southern Cross'. I'm most happy that members agree that this Catt' isn't it.
    There is a website dedicated to Quality Catts. I can't post the URL here, against the rules. A google search under Rlc. Canyon Way will find it instantly. ( plus a stack of outstanding other Catts.
