Re: LV2 x robusta seedling

---

Dennis,

I helped myself to a few of the crosses and this is the first to bloom.  Wish I had done more, but space was limited at the time.  Unfortunately, between my own apparent mislableing and the Magpies, parentage is unsure.  I plan to take a look at the chromosomes this Summer, if I get the time.  Preperation is a bit of a process.

cheers,

Jamie

Great photo, Jamie!  I was tempted to get some of those seeds myself, but I passed.  It's nice to see what I could have ended up with!

Rain is always a problem for me during hybridizing season.  I frequently use upside down buckets & garbage cans to protect my flowers.

Morning, all,

attached is a first bloom seedling from the seedex 2013: LV2 x robusta.
(13S280(?) from Jack Schweizer in Canada)  A smaller blossom with
intense colour, perfect 6-fall symetry and charm!  As it has been
pouring down in my part of the world, a polination/pollen rescue has not
been possible, but there are more buds coming.  I had this labeled as a
reversicolor cross, but LV2 was only offered with robusta, therefor I
suspect I made a mistake with the labels.
