Yes Kevin that helps. I may just plant the seed from the crested stems and see what comes of it.
It turns out that I do seem to have one plant of the correct Apache and it had a lovely seed stalk that dropped a ton of seed right into the bottom of the bag when I put it in there.It was surrounded by other dark Heuffs. I got lots of seed from all of them but they are bee crosses so the seedlings could be quite a mix up. Greenstone and Gold bug are not ripe yet. Actually they still have flowers which those little bumble bees just can't resist.
I have so much seed I truly do not know where I can plant it all. I have a feeling things will be crowded *Blush* Perhaps that situation will encourage me to keep only those that show some color early. If they have really good saturated color do they show it earlier? I did chose some for green. glad I kept them labeled.
