Re: FOGBOUND as a non-SA candidate


To those interested in using 'Fogbound' as a parent....I have had 
nothing but the greatest results from using it as a parent!  I 
crossed it to many things, but the best results came from a horned 
seedling ((Electrique x Mauvelous) x Fogbound)  About half of the 
seedlings had horns and of that half, about 1/3 of those were 
consistant with the appendage.  Fogbound crosses have given me 
consistantly good seedlings for color variation and beard color 
variation...no matter what I crossed it to....Paul Hill

As to the beard, both in color and character, I don't find it 
intrusive here, and it is much lighter and pinker in my garden than 
what it appears to show for Bill.  It's just a beard.  What shows is 
more white than anything else.

I'd show some of those if they were in better condition, but we had 
hail and high wind just as the TB season was starting. breaking many 
stalks, bending others half over, and ripping, practically shredding 
any blossoms about to open.  My only photos were taken of blossoms 
in that condition.
