I had 10 seed pods in 2013. Of those 8 germinated anywhere from 1 to 61 seeds. One of those that had only one germinate, one died of rot, so what I have left is the result of 7 crosses. The crosses I made this year are going to be more focused on a goal for a nice pink that I can name after my Grandmother. I want something that's not just a pink self, but I want something going on with the colors. I also am trying to get an unusual orange. I'm only going to keep about 5 or 6 crosses if I get viable seeds.
Politicians are like diapers, they need to be changed often, and for the same reason.
