Hi everyone-
I apologize for the cross posting.
I received a request from a college student in Alaska. She's taking a
genetics class and is trying to get ahold of information on any attempts to produce
yellow or blue flowered zonals.
She's also looking for a copies of any articles written by or about Cliff
Blackman, and his attempts to produce his yellow -flowered zonal hybrid. In
particular, she would like to get a copy of Cliff Blackman's presentation titled
"Following the Yellow (Brick) Road"- from the International Pelargonium and
Geranium Conference (Oct. 24, 1999).
I'll send her what I have, but I'm hoping others can fill in the blanks. Can
anyone help?
On a related topic, someone on the PelBreederForum is looking for a
blue-flowered P. quinqulobatum, which is reported to be from Somalia. Has anyone seen
or have access to this plant?
