Re: Seed setting / Asian Pearl?

Hi Mike,

Here in UK I got only the one scape, and made 3 crosses, 2 of which have
given 8 seeds, and one 10.

The seeds look to be viable.

Ian in UK, where we have had the warmest October since records began in 17
something or other, 3 degrees C (i.e. about 5 degrees F) above the average.
I don't think they have finished they have finished measuring the rainfall
yet, but we must be close to last years record!
