Re: TB: HYB: help - any comments on these TBs?

Thanks for all the comments both on and off list- helps narrow it down. Presumably what's not in stock this late in the season will narrow it further to a financially reasonable level <g>
Even tho Oklahoma didn't get hit as hard as so many of the rest of us, encouraging to hear ROYAL STERLING was doing well there.
DECADENCE - Ghio included a small piece of it in last year's end of season surprise package - it grew extremely well in its pot, had a gorgeous stalk, full of bloom, loaded with what looked and felt like good pollen. Put pollen on everything, but plants were just too stressed. It was a little early, but even pollen I saved didn't set any pods.
And then it promptly died. Unlike the others, which I can't say are thriving, but at least they aren't dead. :-(
I'm afraid I may have to wait for some offspring better suited to my growing conditions, since I can't even keep it alive in a pot! Maybe some of that swimming pool backwash water would have done the trick...
