Top 'O The Mornin',
everyone!
Here is a photo of Blue Kentucky Girl (Schreiner 2002)
This was a bonus plant from
Schreiner's that year, and I really like it! I harvested a 4 1/2" X 3" pod
off it, which only contained 27 seeds. I had really hoped for more, but
I'm happy with that! The parent plant of the pod is either Fancy
Dress or Celebration Song. I also had a second pod on the
plant, which resulted in only 3 seeds from Du Toit (Muska '99)
. I am currently in a quandary on Du Toit, since my plant
doesn't match the description. But, that is a different article in
itself. I'll get it to ya'll in the future. ;-)
BKG is a VERY tall plant. . . 42
inches. This established clump had four stalks and great
increase, as I had a chance to share it with some friends. None of the
stalks "fell" over, but they were bent from our NE Michigan crosswinds, as
evidenced in this picture. Maybe the cross with Fancy Dress or Du
Toit will result in some smaller stalked plants, but keep the
sturdiness and branching of the BKG mother. :-)
