So far it looks like I have two pods on Orinoco
Flow and none on American Classic by crossing them,
which surprises me since I Orinoco Flow looked like
it had the better pollen.

I'm glad you posted this lovely
photo, Sandra. This DM winner from
England has been one of my
favorites and has performed extraorinarily
well here.
Incidentally,
I have noted registrations from it in TB height range.
I keep
intending to cross it with 'Charleston' or 'American Classic,'
but have
not yet gotten pods from the few attempts. With the classy
quality
and vivid contrast of 'Orinoco Flow' I would expect some good
seedlings.
I also like the name--the song, recorded I believe by
Enya, was one I
found fascinating. The "baptismal" images in the
video were likely
unintentional, but vivid none the less. I'd love
to have used the
song/video combination in a Confirmation class had I had
opportunity
to teach one.
