Re: TB: Tudor England P.S.

P.S.  I should have added good wishes for your own crosses, Mike.  It will be interesting to see what they produce.  --  Griff

This looks like a flower that was before its time.  Monty Byers crossed it with SKY HOOKS to produce SYLVAN, a pretty flower, in 1989, but it doesn't appear to have been taken any further.  Looks to me like some good genes either weren't exploited or may have been too hard to work with.  --  Griff

                Got a request for this one off list. Mr. Loïc wanted a photo of it. I did make some crosses with it and some may bloom next year. I don't plan on using it again. Was a decent grower.
