The hybrid seeds should have been formed using pollen from guehoi "B". However, I do remember that I had used pollen from "A" in the later part when "B" kinda slowed down its flowering. So there might be a mix of both "A" and "B" parentage in your batch of seeds. "A" branches a lot more in my conditions but plants from cuttings are growing differently at a friend's place. Her "B" is branching a lot more.
So bottom line is, both "A" and "B" do branch which is great potential for the hybrid!! Let's see if we can get something close to or rival this.
I just had a minor disaster. I was feeding them pulverized freezed dried bloodworms this morning, tapping the cannister. The cannister slipped out of my hand, landing on top of the plants in the B. guehoi pot. One plant basically broke. The other 2 I was able to get them vertical again. So the one is likely 'toast', and the other two are probably just ticked off.

Yes, they seem to be very resilient at this stage. I bent/broke one too, and the other I snapped of a large portion of the root. So far still alive and ticking.
LOL! This is a far cry from the time (2004) when Copper sent me a B. liniflora plant in a plastic cup, held together by several feet of scotch tape. By the time I got to the end, the plant fllew out of cup, landing on the floor. I quickly retrieved it and planted it, but it was 'toast'.
