SPEC: CULT: pumila? (was SDB genetics)


I have been thinking about the same thing, wondering how hard it would be to "back up" to make new crosses with spotted pumila to get spotted SDBs that would thrive here.

Are there a lot of pumila clones in commerce? Any chance any of them could survive in this climate? Are there US suppliers?

<Obviously early crosses of TBs and I. pumila that gave the SDBs used earlier TBs. It would be interesting to see what Modern high quality TBs crossed with I. pumila would produce. Bob Pries>
