Re: HYB: Matrix for red rebloomers?


Robin,
I like both but the second one (Wearing Rubies x Matrix) is wonderful.  What a great color.

I was looking through some of my seedling photos and I came across a few that might be interesting.  Matrix may be useful for work on getting red rebloomers.  Two different crosses produced some 'red' progeny.  The Scottish Reel x Matrix cross had about 1/3 showing some variation of red.  There was only one red from about 15 that bloomed in the Wearing Rubies X Matrix cross- most of these were bitones- quite a few with tangerine beards. (no fall stalks on either of these crosses so far, darn)

I keep telling myself that I'm not working for reds, but I guess if I keep getting them...
