Hello Viking! My friend Brunnhild the Beauty wants a pink rose for her husband. It's tough to find pink roses in the wild, but I have a solution. If you bring me a red rose and a white rose, I can cross-pollinate them to grow pink roses. I will use a Punnet square to predict what traits the new roses will have. Read your Field Guide for more information. Can you go to the forest and find me a white rose and a red rose?
1- Collect the red flower in Wilderness
Phlegma
The phenotype of this rose is red! The phenotype is the appearance the rose's traits take on.
2- Collect the white flower in Wilderness
Phlegma
You found a white rose! It looks like this phenotype is white. Bring those back to me.
3- Take flowers to Phlegma
Phlegma
They're beautiful! If I breed these together I can make a wonderful pink rose. Genetic traits like flower color are inherited from parents, so it's possible we can get a mix between a red and white phenotype. That would make pink!
