In order to avoid the Postal mayhem that surrounds the holiday season and better ensure the safety of the seeds and their prompt delivery, my next shipping date will be Monday, January 7, 2019. Exceptions can be made if you wish.
Pod parent: TTBIG –17 (unregistered) 32” M SEV on the DOR side 7½ - 8” apricot cream with multiple rippled purple eye. This was the holy moly moment of the 2015 seedling season here. First bloomed in 2015 with only 6 buds, but each bloom had 4-6 purple waves! Quickly moved to the selected bed where it proved itself to be a most worthy plant that held its pattern, throughout the extreme heat and drought of both 2016 and 2018. Scapes sport one lateral under a TW with 27 buds. It even reblooms, and it’s fragrant, too! A probable 2020 intro, every bloom displayed pattern despite the extreme heat and drought in 2018. (TOOKY TOOKY BIRD X INSTANT GRAFFITI).
Pollen parent: CERESIAN CITROEN (Michaels 2017 intro registered in 2016) M 37” DOR 7” (10¼” wingspan) near spatulate 4:1 purple Spider that displays 1or more missing color chevrons over a yellow green throat on all but the very hottest days. It makes sense that the inhabitants of the dwarf planet Ceres would drive a small car, and Citroen, whose emblem is a double chevron, has cornered the market between Mars and Jupiter with the DS3. Easily pod fertile with very good pollen, it, unlike its mom and many of its mom’s offspring, opens early in the morning. Also unlike its mom, it has strong upright scapes. They display a lateral branch and 18 buds. Almost every kid I’ve seen from it so far has been patterned. Seedling MLSBSO-18 (MILITARY SCHOOL X BANSHEE SONATA).
