Hey Bob,
I'll throw my $.02 worth in. Think about "Reversi" or maybe "Hidden Message".
BTW: Love the new intro's for 2010!

Never argue with a pig. You both get muddy, but the pig likes it.

But if ever you would cross it with 'Forever Blue', could you spare a dozen seeds for me?
Absolutely, I just need to locate someone in California, Arizona, or Texas who blooms in April or even early May to send me some pollen prior to my bloom. 24JU23 blooms for me from 20th of May through the 1st week of June so the call goes out for pollen for Bluebeard's Ghost, Forever Blue, Mythology, Just For Kicks' and any other one's imagination can conjure up.
Thanks,
Bob

Bob, i Love your 24JU23!
I dream of IBs from it.......maybe you could pollinate 'Bluebeard's Ghost' with it!
(But if ever you would cross it with 'Forever Blue', could you spare a dozen seeds for me?)
As for creating a great TB, a match made in heaven for dramatic dark beards would be with 'Mythology' (T.Johnson03), and for flounces, what about 'Just For Kicks' (Black05) ?
Thanks for this treat!
i know you'll come up with great ideas....can't wait to see the results!

The photo on the left is seedling 99AH13 a cross between Speed Limit X Twice Thrilling
The second photo is the result of crossing Electric Shock to seedling 99AH13. My thought was wouldn't 99AH13 look better with a dark beard and dark horn. The result was seedling 24JU23. I believe the next progression will be improve the branching and truely make it a dark top, crossing it with Crowned Heads or even a newer or a later edition of one of the great dark tops currently on the market. Stay tuned.
