Re: Re: Re: SAGE CROSSES

I found Eagle Control to be acceptable here in SW Mo.  It has large 
flowers, but the stalks were fairly short and really large and stiff.  Every 
stalk stood strait up, a must for large flowers in my book, especially here 
with the storms we get.  But, I didn't get a single take on it and dobbed 
almost every bloom.  I did get 2 takes from it's pollen, which it produced 
alot of.  The form was large frilly and wide at the hafts, especially for a 
SA'er.  I'd be interested in hearing if anybody got any takes on Eagle 
control.  I don't recall it being listed on 
the one's posted.  If it is a good breeder?  Which way?

 I agree with Bill about how tastes change in regards to form and 
what's "IN."  Time change and trends change, we can look to the 
historics and see that.  But with all flowers that evolve, e.g. daylilies.  
Different forms come up as hybridizers go different directions.  What i'm 
getting at is...Where's the Spider iris? lol.   While some like the super 
wide, heavy substance, ruffly iris.  isn't there room for more than one 
type?    
 
Just some thoughts and questions. The LA's and Spurias are finishing up 
here, 
watching the pods grow.   Here's a stalk of Eagle control that got me a 
blue ribbon at the Iris society of the ozarks.  These flowers were as big 
as the Supreme Sultan that was shown.  Will Warner
