Great job! It is amazing to me how you get blooms so soon, but it also makes a lot of sense. Don't you cut off about a year in the process, allowing you to possibly market a seedling a year sooner?
I hadn't thought about not truly having a "quiet" season with the gardens down south. I love to visit down there, and am sometimes jealous of the year 'round flowers & gardening. But if I lived south I would NEVER get anything done inside of my house! I need the winter to reorganize, paint, CLEAN...... ~Jan
