I will add to this post as long as Barry White keeps singing…
Sadly, pollen from ‘Souv. de Baden-Baden’ failed/hips aborted on ‘Love & Peace’, but IS HOLDING on ‘Tiffany’. Also sadly, three pollinations with ‘Outta the Blue’ failed, so it looks like ‘OtB’ will be female-only parent, though I will try a couple more times.
EDIT: it’s important to remember that one of the failures of ‘OtB’ was MINE, deadheading far too carelessly.
Additional pollinations that seem to be holding:
‘Morden Fireglow’ x Abraham Darby
“MF” x Elina
Tiffany x Elina
Karl Herbst x Elina
“KH” x Ralph’s Creeper
Samourai/Scarlet Knight x Morden Fireglow
Danae x François Juranville
Danae x Sweet Chariot (and the reciprocal, though not NEARLY as many takes, maybe four small hips?)
Sunsprite/Korresia x Morden Fireglow
“S/K” x J P Connell
Benjamin Britten x Nymphenburg
Iceberg x Nymphenburg
So I remade the cross of ‘Night Owl’ x ‘Outta the Blue’ that I carelessly dead-headed. And…
Night Owl x Love & Peace
George Burns x Nymphenburg
Abraham Darby x Nymphenburg
Outta the Blue x Nymphenburg
OtB x Elina
Benjamin Britten x Outta the Blue
BB x Nymphenburg (that’s twice, which explains the emasculated but untagged flower I saw there today going in. I’ll mark it now. Sigh.)
The George Burns x Nymphenburg cross made me giggle, because he DEFINITELY would have made a joke…
I’m trying Nymphenburg on everything because I’ve never had a seed from it germinate; but it does make a LOT of pollen it seems. I also wanna throw Nymphenburg at Rugelda for a lil Kordes on Kordes action, AND it brings in some additional genes of eglanteria (spelling?).
Barry White is definitely getting quieter, but I still managed to get a few more pollinations in;
Julia Child x Morden Fireglow
Lambert Closse x Love & Peace (BAIpeace)
LC x Bullseye
Benjamin Britten x Morden Fireglow
Night Owl x Danäe
NO x Lambert Closse
Laura Ford x Lambert Closse
(I’d like to note here that ‘Lambert Closse’ has the most beautiful ORANGE pollen!!)
That will probably tie up my crossings for the year.
