This is a great thread. I love seeing the diversity in everyone's seedlings. You really never know what you are going to get. Especially when you combine two really different parents. Thanks for all the recent contributions here, Joe, Sue, Elena, Valerie, and Ed.

@EdBurton,
I really liked how you used the parentheses and brackets to show the cross, mostly I just see "X Seedling", I think you must keep excellent records.

I hybridize and sell seeds, I've been told I'm anal about keeping track of my crosses.
But in my mind if I don't keep track how will I know what works and what doesn't?
Not all plants turn out to be good parents

@EdBurton @Seedfork

That is so true, Ed. In the few years I have been doing crosses, already I can start to see which cultivars that I have used are very good pod parents, producing extremely viable seed, and which cultivars do not. Also, which cultivars have great pollen. It is such a learning experience and so incredibly fascinating.

Auction seed buy, I got the seedlings from Greg Younchild, the cross was (New Tangerine Twist x Wild Child)
We registered one of them as "Cereal City Sun Catcher" Greg lives in Battle Creek, Michigan
Greg sent me the seedlings in a plant exchange because they didn't fit into his plans, I should add that Greg did not grow them out to maturity

I will share some sibling seedlings and show their parents for reference.
Here are 2 sibling seedlings from 2015 that I have in my evaluation bed for possible registration.
This cross...
Parents: Seedling #12-450 x Cosmic Kaleidoscope

Here are siblings from 2015 that were all growing in one large clump until I divided them all in 2018.
This is surprising results and lots of variation.
