New Tropical hybrid

« on: July 05, 2010, 03:57:30 PM »

Well I am not really sure if I like this new creation of mine.
First day it is lavender and second and third day it is light sky blue.

I might send this one away to another pond to trial and see how big of a bloom and spread it can achieve. I am not super happy with it but it is a step in the right direction for blue hybrids in my breeding program.

Cheers,
Sean

I like the color it's showing on my computer. It looks like a very light purple! I'd be happy to grow it out for you.

Looks good to me, Sean. I have lots of room in my pond this year. Sadly all my trops died this winter. I still had a couple small Sandra Lyns until a month ago but couldn't keep them warm enough and they wilted away.
