PamSue's Blue Silk - as fascinating as it is mesmerizingly lovely. In my garden, Blue Silk produced two types of flowers and two colors of seeds, described below -

The flower that produced the dark seeds had more blue relative to the white, which Ron said looks like Nichinou's Sazanami here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=2898855 . Keep in mind that MGs labeled Sazanami will look different from each other, depending upon their source. The flower from my garden that resembles this one is posted below.

The flower that produced the light seeds had less blue relative to the white, and looks like the flower ron_convolvulaceae described as "[looking] like the dilute color visible on the Akatsuki no Tsyuyu/Blue Silk" here - http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=3987067 - scroll above to get more context on this quote from Ron. I'll post the photo of Blue Silk from my garden similar to this one next.

I have not yet grown out a second generation to see if these flowers will continue producing both colors of seed and types of flowers. Does anyone know?

Blue Silk offspring with more blue relative to white that produced dark seeds -
