Even better is part two: the growing field with again the name plates followed by shots of the plants in the field. You can perfectly see which ones stand up better than others, have prettier flowers, are more floriferous, have open or closed buds and so on… The last part is the highlight: the area where @bobjohnson his seedlings are propagated.…Read More
6 CommentsThe seedling being referred to is at 12:59 in this video. The flowers are attractive, but the plant habit is probably the very best of any seedling I’ve grown in all my years of hybridizing. Terrifically strong stems on a compact bush.

Is this plant fertil ? Did you make some pollination with it? If the plant is perfect, it’s only maybe the color? They miss nothing I think. But as a cut flower more interesting than as a Garden plant?

The seeds which went into the warm treatment later did show a difference in that the one that were left in my house at some 22-23°C had hardly made any progress and showed as good as no…Read More
