Paul I agree with Bonnie.

One of my goals is to create a nice pink, not a self, but one with something going on and it has to be nice and ruffly. I want it in honor of my Grandmother who was so smitten by the pinks when they first came out. She saved money for a long time to be able to buy one, and I remember how proud she was of it. I'd like to name one after her. I also would like to create something like Cold Fushion in orange and purple. I think that would be cool. We'll have to see how that all turns out. The first year's crosses I made were just to see if I could make it happen. I hadn't set any real goals to achieve with them other then to see if I could make it work. This year's crosses were more focused. Now I just have to get them to germinate and all will be good!
