Thanks for that Anner- I thought it was the reverse, until I saw some
comment in TWOI.

Not exactly. It was in pod, until I harvested the seeds last week. Very
healthy looking seeds, but not many, as I expected. CELCIUS is Barry Blyth's
fertile Dwarf, from Tall breeding. It's from similar lines to his fertile
IB's, and doesn't look like the other dwarfs. It has flowers with much
substance, and a pattern (dark brown spot on copper brown falls) which just
leaps out at you.
It was just a feeling I had, that it might produce something with I.
germanica. I have no idea what chromosome count it has. I wonder what
strange offspring it will produce?
Cheers, Jan Clark
