Tossing my hat into the ring, I have crossed Blue Chip Stock with an IB, it
is too early to tell if anything has taken yet. The IB is a fertile
seedling of ours. I hope I am not offending the sensibilities of anyone, IB
X IB, IB X SDB and (IB X IB) X TB crosses are producing the most unusual and
interesting colors and combinations. We have several TBs with the pumila
(spelling?) spot on them now.
