Breeder's notes:
The name for this exact seedling, has popped in my head whilst walking up the stairs to the strand where it grows. I was thinking about the name for the seedling next to it, but then I got an intuitive idea for this - Proteus.
Then I looked up some images of the olm (Proteus Anguinus), a very rare animal known to live in the Slovenian Postojna cave, I realised that it was a mixture of both the colours in a smokier version. That was when I realised that was it.

The olm (Proteus anguinus) also known as the human fish, the baby dragon, and, in Slovenian, "močeril"
is a symbol of Slovenian natural heritage.
