That would be a great topic, Karen!

I am lucky to have folks send me pictures every year. There is a man in Canada who has an "ahead" field. Not sure I could ever visit that one....lol.

There have been threads on the Robin questioning the practice of seed buying. Even going so far as stating that folks who buy seeds are not hybridizer's. We, as a collective group of buyers and sellers, are sometimes considered second tier hybridizers. I used to comment on the Robin, But folks are going to think what they think.

It would be great if more hybridizers would admit that some of their intros come from purchased seeds, or gift seeds, but I have no control over that. Occasionly, gifted seeds and plants are shared.

I hope you get some beautiful seedlings, Karen. We have the same dream for that cross!

Steve
