Default Hybrdizer Academy 101: question about recapturing 2 recessives

I'm trying to recapture 2 recessives in one seedling: one recessive is color and one recessive is shape. How many F2 seedlings do I need to grow out to recapture the 2 recessives in one plant?

When I do my Punnet calculations I get 1 seedling out of 16 has the 2 recessives.

I need to figure out my probabilities next unless someone already has an answer....

Oh, and here's a picture of a Beauty King x Mystery Cross F2 seedling from Brad Gates that I grew out this year.
