Re: Input for intros


Now you're talking Mike !  That it a fabulous looking plant !!!!  What is there not to like about it ?  As I said before many times, I get bored pretty easily and this "novelty" is just what the doctor ordered to spruce of my iris bed.  How does it grow and has it been tested in colder gardens ?

I find this suprising, I thought you two were the modern day pioneers in the field.  Regardless, what an incredible intro FINE MESS is.  High 5 !!!!

Hi Colleen,

Thanks for the reply, the yellow pink white one has some redeeming qualities but it isn't as eye catching as the other.  It is more graceful and mellow so decided to intro it next year.  In fact we have a bunch of SAs coming out next year, I think the most ever for us in one year.  Props is a yellow SDB SA, Fine Mess is a broken colored SA with 3, 4 or 5 falls and standards....truly a novelty but I am still not sure I like it.  George has 2 IB SAs coming out and I think we have an additional 6 TB SAs next year.  Just worked out that way as neither of us are really trying to breed for SAs.

Attached is Fine Mess, maybe you all can talk me out of introing it.  :-)

Mike

Hi Mike

 

I instantly liked the yellow and rosy-brown one. The other would possible have more limited appeal. I think Iʼd have to see it for real.

Hi,

thought I would get all of your opinions on a couple of SAs that we are thinking of introducing next year.  What do you all think of the two attached SAs?  both have good branching and bud count plus good to strong vigor, both have very thick substance and are consistent with appendages and form.

thanks for the input.

Mike
