Nice crosses everyone!

Lisa - I hope you get lots of seeds and good germination of some of those mini crosses.

I, too, am dabbling in small blooming or miniature crosses:

Little Rosy Cloud X CCC05 (Laughing Clown x Zanti Misfit)

My CCC05 is a small bloom and Little Rosy Cloud is am small bloom too. Not mini, but small. Maybe one of the seeds will produce a mini. I love CCC05 because of the shape and color of the blooms.

I also crossed Little Jet Setter with Little Rosy Cloud (LJS x LRC AND LRC x LJS):

As well as the CCC05 x LJS. I am not sure why CCC05 produced such small, brightly colored blooms. This is the second year of it blooming and it is still producing 5" blooms. Zanti Misfit produces much larger blooms at 8" and I am sure that Laughing Clown produces larger blooms, too. Funny how large blooming parents can produces a small blooming seedling. The foliage is a short leafed and smaller clump.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
