Some seedlings are reblooming on much taller scapes than the first bloom so I have started taking a hard look at them to see if there are a few I want to move to the hybridizing area to work with next year and watch them another year. There are also the ones I moved last year, I have to decide how many I will line out and keep for a third year.
This was one I selected a month ago, it rebloomed and it sets seed. LILLIAN'S JINGER BRED X BEST EDGE Over 6" and seldom hangs. Have not seen much branching but that could improve next year.

I selected this seedling when it first bloomed at seven months because it already had a huge scape with four way branching and a 6" bloom with the widest petals I have done.

This is a 18 month old still in the seedling field loaded with seed pods. I set a seed everytime I put pollen on it, it also has tall well branched scape and the flower isn't bad.
BUDDY'S WILD AND WONDERFUL X HOTTER THAN THE FORTH OF JULY.

This is now 10 months old with a decent tall scape. This flower is not as exotic as a lot of the others but the substance is like shoe leather.

And so it goes until September.
