Sorry posting was so delayed, this year has really flown by!
I really was surprised, many from Solaris and Adelman's either bloomed or formed buds that aborted/ blasted.
Sadly Joanna Gilbert was one that had buds that never opened. I think there was more of those then ones that did bloom!
ShimaDaijin bloomed its 2nd year in a row, so really hopeful that many will bloom reliably every year.

Your Wisteria Reflections crosses, I just saw Nate's Seminar on growing from seeds, he mentioned the process had to be done indoors for Lutea seeds, I think that was because they needed 3 months of warmth....
But I was wanting to ask you, do you grow your Lutea seeds indoors?
And would that still apply if it was a Lutea crossed with a Suffruticosa?
Hopefully some of these will be big enough to give crossing a try next year!
Shima Nishiki has a seed pod on it this year, open or self pollinated, that I left on it to give a try, if they end up being fertile, the pods do look a bit creased though which Nate described as being most likely bad seed.
