I got my firefly petunias from light.bio around a month or so ago and they're now just starting to take off. This picture was taken in a dark room with no windows, though I'm sure the phone brightened it up a bit. They aren't as bright as I was imagining, but I still find them neat.
In between life, we garden.

Is that still the case with gene splicing vs natural mutation?
If the trait or edit is homozygous and you self pollinate the plant the trait will not be segregated out. If it is heterozygous you will get a mix.
When transforming plants you can get hetero or homozygous edits both. I am unsure the genotype of the firefly petunias though.
So if the edit is homozygous it is known as a pure line.
