Happy Friday everyone!\u00a0 I was out relaxing a bit in the garden when I got home, and just wanted to share with y’all how this cross was doing.\u00a0 Again, it was a cross I did back in 09, and now I’m starting to see the work start to pay off, 2 years later! Be sure to check this post<\/a> out so you can see how far these babies have come along.<\/p>\n

And again, just to show you, here are the two parents:<\/p>\n

What’s funny is that the the two “select” seedlings that I set aside back then, are about the same size (or now even smaller) than some of the other seedlings I have growing in that tub now.\u00a0 Goes to show you, you never really know what you’ll get when breeding and growing from seed —\u00a0 and what seedlings will spring up as late starters. Or I should say, late jumpers.<\/p>\n

I’m really liking the seedlings with the clean polka dotish action on the pitchers. Finally seeing the fruition of my labor is exciting and keeps me going in this obsession.\u00a0 I’m still fairly new at breeding – can’t wait to see some of the other stuff cookin’ grow up!<\/p>\n
