Interesting for sure and a big thanks to you. We might some day (if the mood strikes) even be able to figure out exactly how much the chances of a strike are improved by doin' all three.

As a point in passin', This lazy Sotherner only does one. Likely this accounts for some of the variation in our strike rates.

I'll most likely stay lazy partly because I really am and partly because I can attempt three times as many crosses in the same time frame by doing so.

Too, I feel a little guilty when I don't get at least some pollen on each variety growin' here. I feel real, real guilty and some mad this year. I didn't get to all and some did not bloom. (laughin')

Smiles,
