Re: Karoo Pride

Hi Ed,

I'm confused, too.  What do you mean by "seed parent"?  Pollen
parent?  I always thought the plant receiving the pollen was listed first,
then the pollen donor, so that "P. (species) x P. (species) " meant "P.
(species) pollinated, i.e., impregnated, by P. (species)".  Help!

Hi everyone-



I'm looking for information on 'Karoo Pride', a hybrid developed and

introduced by Ernie deMarie.  I have seen it listed as
P.sericifolium x

P.hystrix  and as P.hystrix x P.sericifolium. If, as I've read,
it is

standard convention to list the seed parent first, I'm confused. Does
anyone

know which species is the seed parent of this hybrid?



I apologize for posting on multiple lists.



Thanks-

Ed
