Re: HYB: REB: mixing cold climate & CA

Well, I don't have all that much info, but did have a few crosses that would qualify.  Romantic Evening has produced some summer blooming seedlings from Pink Attraction and Aunt Mary.  In fact I have a seedling from RE X PA that just opened today.  It isn't a great stalk by spring standards, but does have 8 buds and while a little bunched, isn't horrid.  It did well to bloom since there were several near 100 deg days while it was forming.   
   
  I also got some summer bloom on the Golden Immortal X Idol and Golden Immortal x Rio crosses.  Pink Attaction x Braggadocio produced three seedlings that bloomed in the summer.  I do think that Braggadocio carries the rebloom before frost trait.
   
  This spring was to be the first year that some of the second generation seedlings would bloom.  But there were very, very few that bloomed from these crosses.  It will be interesting to see if anything decides its safe to bloom now :  )
