>Are you making any SA TB X AB crosses? Or crosses with Kalifa's horn?

 

Not with TB SAs.  That seedling is the only SA blooming.   It's not really the best candidate for me on using with an AB.  Seems better suited for a TB cross with the consistancy of appendages.  As for KH, yes.  With the dry, windy weather it probably isn't going to be a likely take.  It does fit what I try the most, the AB- X AB type.  That's where I've concentrated with the dearth of pollen.  Seemingly I've had some success, but the pods will probably be a high percentage of balloons or few seeds that won't germinate.  I may not have any seedlings next year from seeds obtained this year.  I have seeds stored in the freezer from last year - a much more congenial year for getting pods than this one has been.

 

>Once again, I really like that Thornbird seedling you posted pics of this year and last.  It still looks really good, hint, hint.

 

Welllll....if it blooms for Chris he may have a whole bunch he's anxious to dump :).  But if you seriously want some, it's likely you could get it from me.  It's outgrown the space allotted - again. 

 

I had the leaf spot under the same conditions well before bloom.  Spraying may have helped, but the weather is the more likely reason it's gone.  Lots of sun, wind and low humidity.
