I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database! Celebrating Gardening: 2015
One of the things that was fun for me this year that I had not done in the past when taking pictures was to pay attention to the tags of the seedlings when I visited the different gardens, was hoping to find some seedlings from plants I had used at home in my own crosses and get a idea of what produced what and if there was anything out there that constantly had good looking seedlings hoping to save some time and take a little bit of the guess work out of it Smiling while not all of tags give you the parentage because some are seedling crosses what I did notice is Joe's plants are being used all over with Outstanding results!! They are showing up in the pedigree's of a lot of my favorite new introductions and in seedlings all over the country, if you are thinking about making some crosses in the spring mix in some Ghio blood the results are excellent Green Grin!

It was almost impossible to pick a favorite because I wanted them all Big Grin nodding so many good plants but here is my top 10 that I would want to have at home.
