In 2010, I had the opportunity to cross two special plants – both of which I would consider to be an all time classic. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but I knew that I was hoping for something interesting. And by the time 2011 rolled around, there was this nice pot full of tiny babies:
From that pot, only four survived. (It was a time where a lot of transition was happening. Move after move after move…) Then the four became three. And those three have settled in nicely. Characteristics of both parents are beautifully and elegantly cominbed. Here’s a few quick shots of how they’re currently shaping up:
I’m liking all of them – but it’s clone III that I’m partial to at the moment. Later in the season the contrast will intensify. Updates to follow from this, and updates to follow on seedlings from the same cross done in subsequent years. 🙂
