Barbara, 
  On your cracked bloomstock....if it has only one bud left, you have equal 
choices leave it there,perhaps tie it to a bamboo support stick to prevent 
further cracking.  Or cut it low, put in a vase for the house, then with a 
sharp knife do surgery to make crack a clean finished cut....again two 
choices. Either leave cut exposed to sun and air to dry and heal for a day or 
two, or if your area is rot prone sprinkle a little Comet cleanser or 1 to 10 
bleach solution over cut, wait one day then put dirt back to normal 
level.~Diane  

  Christy,

  I think you are clever to make the Batik connection, Allan Ensminger did 
indead  let some of his re-select seedlings go out to budding hybridizers. I 
checked some of the Nineties check lists and Ensminger uses EX:85-13 seedling 
numbering which I interput to mean yr:85 and cross # 13. I also checked 
Kasparek and Maryotts numbering system and they don't coincide with the 
sdlg#837943. These are the other two color break hybridizers who came to 
mind. So the mystery continues~Diane
