Well I have not started hybridizing yet but I do have a tone of hybridized seeds and seedlings started.It all started with wanting some hardy plants to fill my part of the yard.(new house on about 10 acres)My husband gets to have his pretty lawn on the side of the house that leads into the woods and I get the other side of the house with an overgrown field for all my plants and veggies.Its proubly an acre or 2.
So I was looking on ebay for a good deal on plants and came across daylily seeds but I bulked at 10 dollars fro 10 seeds.(im a cheapo).So I typed daylily seeds lowest prcie with shipping and bam great deals (im sure i have seeds from some of you on here)I bid on alot.Then I found someone selling them at win 10 or more and shipping is free. Hurray!
Then I found the lily auction Drooling Im sure I have enough by now proubly 300 or more seedlings just starting from seed and over a hundred plants from buying and some from trading of my peonies I dug up from my old house.
I have more seeds on the way and auctions that have not closed yet.It is madness I tell you. Hilarious!
I have made folders for all the types I want to cross when they bloom and have researched as well.
So I know who will be crossed with whom except in the misc folder those will wait to see what they look like when they bloom.
So im not an official hybridizer yet but i have everything I need to start in the spring.
If you would have a mind at peace, a heart that cannot harden, go find a door that opens wide upon a lovely garden.
