Dear Sharon,
I certainly will try your proposed experiment. MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION has
done wonderfully well here along thre Colorado Front Range, and I grow a wide
variety of modern tb's.
I did dig all my arilbreds this last summer, however, and we don't get bloom
on everything the first year after transplanting. I will especialy encourage
M.O. to bloom. ( :
I hadn't tried to make crosses with M.O. before because I figured that as a
quarter-bred, it would be very difficult. Not so in this case? Anyway, I am
intrigued by the notion of eighth-breds with aril characteristics.
Planting seeds this week.
