Thanks everybody it certainly was a great bloom season here and with our midwest weather you just never know what your going to get until mid May . I got to see so many of the seedlings bloom that I had been waiting on and was able to make decisions on what to keep and move forward with and lots of the new ones bloom for the 1st time that showed potential to lead me towards some goals I have been working on and of course lots of pleasant surprises that made me question where did that come from and how did I get those colors from that cross Smiling

Daisy & Bea.. On the commercial business question I will not be selling any of my seedlings directly our plan was always to develop a website and eventually offer our own plants but I have come to realize that its just not possible at this time I currently have 2 construction companies that are full time jobs in them selves and the busiest time of the year for those is the summer months don't think I would ever be able to keep up with emails/orders and getting them dug/ shipped on schedule so decided against the website.

I do have some exciting news to announce for next year ..Schreiner's Smiling will be introducing my plants and were super excited to partner with them and Thankful that they were willing to take on our creations and offer them to the world there customer service and operation is 1st class and they offer worldwide shipping Smiling which is a bonus for me have had lots of people from overseas reach out on my IG page wanting plants and dealing with export/ import permits is a whole other headache that I did not want to take on.. so very excited for the future!

There were 12 seedlings named this year and shipped to Oregon but only 3 will be introduced right away as Schreiner's require a lot more stock then I had so plants will need to sit there another year Crossing Fingers! and increase so there is enough for them to catalog. Here are the intros for next year Smiling
