Re: HYB: a cross I'd like to see...

I did a kindof strange cross this Spring, actually, the only one I could do,
given the freezes. I put pollen from a TB variegata -- seedling from someone,
no name -- onto Ming IB, and got 4 pods, 12 seeds. Hmmm....anyone care to
guess what that might bring?           0-:

| Promise of cooler, if not wetter, weather by the weekend has fueled some
| minor enthusiasm for pollen daubing visions.
|
| Wondering how well HARVEST OF MEMORIES might mix with SILVERADO.  Not
| going to happen here - S hates the vale, but thinking it might have size
| and quality to help out HoM, go for rebloom with later generations -
| maybe cross seedlings with SUNNY DISPOSITION.  I know, more 'boring'
| yellow rebloomers, but they could be nice, tall, and healthy.
|
| Any of the rest of you having daubing 'visions'?
