 Betty, could you elaborate?  As a newbie, I have no idea what you
mean.  Do you mean you look for a cross that produces mostly good
seedlings as part of future planning?  Or ...

I'm only getting a few seedlings (less than 10) to bloom size from most
of my crosses (i.e., 40 seeds x 40% germination (to be generous!) x 50%
survival = 8 seedlings).  What part of the 'broader view' am I missing?

<In the past, I looked at seedlings for individual  qualities.  Now, my
view is broader.  Betty>
