I had tried FB X Baby Blessed and nothing was a rbloomer.
I havn't gotten anything with Lo Ho Silver after many tries. You will
have to let us know what the results are.
I have got some pods from I Blessed , which I suspect to be a glaciata
as well as a reblooming IB. Seeds wer planted but I havn't double
checked to seee how plants are doing.
Breeding with FB to produce rebloomers is a bit frustrating as it's
genetics for rebloom seem to be quite different then most reblooming
genetics. A completely new set of genetics as far as I can tell.

Thanks Chuck for the feed back.
Here are some news from my favorites, the IBs, since not much data
seems to be available, i thought it might interest you.
What do you think of Low Ho Silver =(Howdy Do X Baby Blessed)
Have you ever tried to use it?
It's a very early bloomer here, early rebloomer ( begining of July)
and my best re-rebloomer too.
I was sterile for many years ( i tried hundreds of crosses on this one!)
but last autumn it set pods!!!
Here is what i got: pod pol froz seeds
low ho silver cameo blush
10
low ho silver cry baby
5
low ho silver dark crystal
10
low ho silver immortality
2
low ho silver juicy fruit
3
low ho silver just teasing
2
low ho silver speed limit
2
low ho silver TT05-09d= cerf-Volant X Liaison
3
The number of seeds is not much, and they might never germinate, no pod
with Forever Blue's pollen neither, but who knows, i might get lucky
with one of the crosses...
There is also Angel Heart =(Coral Charmer X Be Happy ), that reblooms
regularly at the end of June, then again later,and has set pods ,for
the frst time in years also, last autumn:
pod pol froz seeds
angel heart banana cream
29
angel heart bounce back + 4
angel heart cameo blush
25
angel heart conjuration + 14
angel heart cry baby
3
angel heart eternal bliss
23
angel heart gypsy boy
20
angel heart i'm back
12
angel heart popstar

And my third big hope comes from I'll Be Back =(Joe Cool X Eternal
Bliss) that starts to reblooom early August and has been a fabulous
mother:
pod pol froz seeds
i'll be back again and again
20
i'll be back detroit city + 17
i'll be back duke of earl
8
i'll be back eternal bliss
12
i'll be back honey scoop

i'll be back mukadam + 4
i'll be back TT05-09d = cerf-Volant X Liaison + 10
i'll be back what again
25
Many more crosses with the medians, but these 3 seem to be very
promissing since they are reliable early and multiple rebloomers here
in Holland!
