Yes, we each have our own preferences. That's a good thing!

Well, that is interesting. I thought I may challenge Tom's 76 Keppel's; but I fell far short of that goal. I have only 62 Keppel cultivars.

Nice list Greg, good to see you posting again.

My Keppel contingent represents about the same percentage as in Sherry's garden. I am at 8.2% Keppel.

My favorite is: Bel Esprit

Well, Greg, you only have to buy what 14 to be even! (Evil smile) But of course I didn't add the ones I have on order for this year. he he he

[quote="Boxergirl"]Ok here is my keppel list. It's not as many as I thought. I only have 43 and that's a mix of wants and haves

"Only 43"?!?!?! That's more than I have total!!! My husband already thinks I am nuts, and you should have seen his face when I showed him your post and explained that was just 1 hybridizer. The man actually stuttered!!! I think he is very, veeeeerrryy afraid of our upcoming trip

Ha!!! Tell him mine is nothing compared to Tom, Jan and Gregs. Lol

Here is my Kepple list. Turns out I have 60 which works out to be 11% of my collection!

(Sorry it's hard to read, I was having trouble with the formatting.)

Many of these have not bloomed yet. And as you can see I'm just starting to add medians to my collection. Of the ones that have bloomed I can't pick a favorite but the top 3 are:
