Connie what happens is a big one gets put on display inside a casino, or
showcaseor at a fair in the sun and the warmth sprouts the seeds inside. I
was trying to brainstorm big ones that had this happen and then there seeds
sprouted but some were left in good shape but not too much were produced
from those seeds. Are the ones that rapidly sprout the cream of the crop.
The first that comes to mind is the 945 DeJong but was trying to get other
to think about it and see if this is a possibility. I need some of the old
timers to think about biggies where seed was scarce because of this.......
and that the left over seed didn't do much. Lets see the 977?? 1056??
1061?? ...MB
