Lovely photos, everyone!
Becky, here is what Tink (hybridizer who sells a lot on the LA) has to say about tet conversions: "Conversions can revert back to dips, however, most of the tet conversions being sold should have been check to make sure they are full conversions and stable before being sold. Also, increases on conversions can be dips and not conversions. Or a conversion can be part dip and part tet and will most likely go back to being a dip if it is. The only for sure way to tell is by checking the pollen.
But I will say that working with conversions is frustrating to say the least. The pollen either doesn't set but on a few things or it sets on lots of things and then aborts. Or you get one that the pollen is super pollen. I have pods left and right shriveling up from my WILD DREAMS conversion but I do have some that I think will make it. I don't own TET TEXAS KALEIDOSCOPE but I have used the pollen and I think I got two seeds from using it numerous times last year. I mainly used conversions on the spiders/ufs last year and ended up with no pods from any of them; they all aborted or didn't take. "
Hi Avedon. Thanks for posting the photo of your first VVOL bloom. It looks a bit anemic. I'm wondering if sustained heat might be part of the cause. It'll be interesting to see what subsequent blooms look like. Sometimes a daylily needs to settle in for a year before it produces good blooms consistently.
