My understanding is that S. "Dana's Delight" is what is sometimes called S. "Leucophylla Red" and is a complex hybrid containing purpurea, psittacina, flava, and leucophylla in varying combinations.

What you get may not replicate "Dana's Delight". Such special plants are usually like finding a diamond in the pile of lesser rocks. The fun of breeding is that occasionally you get a great plant among a lot of ordinary ones.

Have you self pollinated the plant or crossed it with something else?

No, by the time i bought it it was done being polinated. But it was the only one flowering and only Dana's delights.
