So ... You used it as a pollen parent and I used it as the pod parent. My use was because I thought it could set viable seeds, but it took awhile. I planted 15 seeds that resulted in eight plants. I'd read the pedigree and thought it should set seeds, so I acquired the plant. Sometime during the years of growing of it, it was given the Mohr Medal and then I finally got the pod with the subsequent germination. I may try and use it again because the seedlings I saw this year had good form, great substance, sturdy stalks and good growth. Only four bloomed, but there were a lot of good qualities. How do those traits show up on this one?
