RE: HYB: 101: sibling crosses


I think I'd have to try both a few sib crosses and some 'cousin' 
crosses.  When you see what the seedlings are doing, you can see why 
the hybridizers keep moving forward - same pattern, more ruffles, 
etc... 

I wonder if the plant health is the problem with the sib crosses.  
You sure don't see many registered with sibs as parents.

I threw together a quick page so you could see some of Keppel's 
seedlings in this pattern.  I don't have pedigrees on them all, but I 
put down what I had.  Hopefully I have them all right.

Some of them aren't finished flowers, but you can see the progress 
that's being made.

Found a stalk forming yesterday, how else am I going to set pods and 
keep it happy??
