Still "full bloom" at the Reeds garden. Newcomers at first bloom are Taught
By Masters, Wintry Sky, Amiable, and Spouting Horn.
A few more seedlings, but nothing worth keeping. Waiting for Crystal Dreams x
Honky Tonk Blues, with no idea what to expect. Trying to get a little stone
stair finished; afterwards I'll have a place to line out (hopefully) the rest
of my 2001 crosses.
Finally seeing pods from some of my crosses this year, almost all on Double
Click or Louisa's Song. I still have zero "broken color" seedlings from my BC
crosses, but have another pod (Double Click x Bewilderbeast) to nurture.
Limited number of crosses this year; one key goal is to cross Louisa's Song
with all the best "blue" stuff I can. Today it was Spouting Horn and
Skylark's Song (neither particularly good flowers but both with good blue
color), and Rippling River (please!).
