Re: HYB: ? white TB parents

Steve, where are you located?

You are so much colder than here (zone 7), that a good pod/pollen parent
here might not work well for you.

Are you interested in Space Age, lace, what color beards, ruffled vs
tailored, rebloom?  Maybe zone 4 is too cold/too short a growing season
for reliable rebloom of TBs?

I know Tom Parkhill really likes one of the whites, & has used it to
improve form in a lot of his crosses.  Would have to ask which one.

< I was wondering if I could get some suggestions from experienced
hybridizers and fanciers as to their "best choice" for a white TB to use
in a breeding program both to work on whites and possibly improve other
colors...     steve m. zone 4b>
