Alissa said she had no idea she was getting colored bonsai plants until they bloomed today. Said she had been crossing some green peculiar cactus with other plants, hoping for black and white mutants. The menu is from the yellow bonsai, and shows it will produce seeds and can be cross-pollinated.[/QUOTE]
To start out, the house in question that started this thread is mine. This may be a bit out of date with the new publish, but it took me along time to figure out how I got the green flowery cactus that started this. No, it wasn't some old seed I had laying around. I was breeding legacy plants trying for mutant black and whites. Aparantly crossing the various cactus gives you a chance at a colored or plain flowery cactus. That is how I got the green flowery cactus. I crossed it with all the legacy plants I had growing at the time, and got colored bonzi from some of them as a result.
The same day I showed these plants I had someone else show up and say they were going to report me for an exploit. I paged a GM. I had no desire to loose my accounts over a breeding fluke I didn't even know was possible. The GM said not to worry, the colored flowery cacti and colored bonzi did not give me any advantage over another player, so they are not concidered an expoit.
Aparently colored flowery cacti also come from bogling seeds. However with the new publish I don't know if they still do, or if you can still get them from crossing legacy cacti, or if you will still get colored bonzi from crossing flowery cacti with legacy plants. I also don't know if the colored bonzi seeds I still have not grown will continue to produce breedable colored bonzi.
I hope this answers all the questions, I still haven't had my coffee this morning, so sorry if I missed something.
