Re: HYB: more rebloom babies!


Linda -- Looks like your use of Reemay is paying off. Hope we get to see the photo.

20B2's cross is LUMALITE X BLAZING SUNRISE. I think some might prefer ruffles, but it has a simplicity that I like. And I'd like to see if I can get its branching into some other rebloomers.

We are into several days of freezing temperatures that will probably pretty well zap the remaining stalks in the garden.

DAUGHTER OF STARS, cut,  is blooming nicely indoors.  --  Griff

Dug three more seedlings to bring indoors yesterday, 2 more sibs from the IC1 X "Pretty Baby" cross, one from HARVEST OF MEMORIES X LAURA JEAN.

The first two have been under Reemay - hadn't checked them for quite a while, and was astonished to find one has a bud almost open! Will try (and try, and try...) to post a photo. It's very short, but the bloom looks promising.

Griff, what do you have against 20B2? Nice color. Is it just too old fashioned looking? What's the pedigree.

Here's IB 20B2, blooming a day after I had to cut it. Maybe I should name it Rodney Dangerfield, since it don't get no respect, but I like t. -- Griff
