Re: HYB: Starship Enterprise

Afternoon all...

Dave Silverberg noted STARSHIP ENTERPRISE is still $45.00 this year in the 
Schreiners catalog.  From the OKC convention gardens last year that I saw it 
growing or sitting in/blooming a single flower in, I'd guess it must not 
increase any better in Oregon than it did/does here.  I haven't been back to 
the specific gardens here to see if it made a survivor or lived out the 
winter.  

Most places I saw it, it was one single stalk with one big bloom sitting atop 
a bloomstalk that apparently was strong enough to hold it (the day we were 
there anyway)...   The bud count was really pitiful.  I don't think I saw but 
4 buds total on one plant and 3 on the other two...  But, I must say, the big 
bloom that was open was spectacular.  Course, if you have to pay $45 a year 
every year to see that one flower, it may or may not be worth it...  Just my 
opinion...  I don't own it.  Don't think it would stand up here at the gusty 
Poore-House.  The 3 places I can recall seeing SE they were all 3 in very 
protected areas...  

I know I have some responses to answer, just let me (and both my OCU teams) 
get past the Sooner Athletic Conference Championship games tonight (all 
night) and I'll catch up over the next couple of days...  Am certainly 
enjoying all the chat.  And, I promise to get by the greenhouse tomorrow and 
check out Razzleberry to be able to give you all specific answers...  Just 
too many hoops since last Thursday noon...  

Kath in OKC..... =^.^=
