Another topic, if anyone on here sets too many seeds on one plant, I am sure it is me. Last year for instance, I set over 50 pods on one clump of Beautiful Edgings. I was blooming some BE seedlings that looked good to me. Tall heavy scapes with good branching and bud counts but limited genetics (3 or 4 different crosses) with BE as the pod parent. I wanted to try lots of colors, sizes, and forms crossed with BE, so I set pods with 20 different DL's.
This year Beautiful Edgings has not done that well. Only about 5 scapes on a large clump and bud counts on the scapes are much less than last year. It got a rest this year. ( but there are a few other that I used very heavily this year.) I only use diploids, Aston does both Tet and Dip seeds and around here only the Dips will set enough to have too many pods.
The 4 Dips that I have the most seedlings from:
Rose F Kennedy
Indian Giver
Stargate Portal
Beautiful Edgings
Terry
