Hi all
I thought it'd be interesting to get some guesses (prognostications -- : ) ) on what this outcome of this cross will look like. Magical was the pod parent and pollen parent was a seedling of mine. Lovely color and form on said seedling of mine, but wasn't satisfied with the branching or bud count. Had a poor harvest of seeding on this cross yielding only 10 or so seeds and only one survived. Small plant but hopefully this year will be its maiden bloom. Here's what im thinking ---
A range of nicely formed, well ruffled melons, apricoty pinks, light cantaloupe oranges, muted yellow blends. OR a compost candidate. Judging from Magical's somewhat complex heritage, I counting on being totally surprised. One thing im not counting on is anything introduceable from a single surviving seedling from this cross.
Love to hear your thoughts
