14 years ago

Hey, it's Wednesday!

This offer is for regular members/posters first. Postage + shipping is expected. Email me.

I may just pass out 5-6 seeds of the first two crosses if anyone wants to do that, so you have a little of both!

6 seed packets of 10-12 seeds of each first two crosses being offered.

I'm trying to think of a contest but my brain is fried from all the tax forms and numbers!! Sorry!

Okey, here are the crosses:

1.)Dorthea x sdlg (Bergfeuer x Super Spot)-

2.) Dorthea (see above photo!!) x Pink Perfection (see link below for PP photo)

And then, I have a very limited amount of this cross, just a few seeds to share-

(73E Tootsie x Shooting Star) x First Belle

Hugs, Brenda

Has anyone used 'American Seed' company's seeds?

I bought American Seed orange Tithonia/Mexican Sunflower seeds but the description and planting instructions are for Sunflower Solar Power F1. So now I have seedlings that need to be transplanted, but I don't know if I"ll be getting the orange Tithonia I had hoped for in my color palette or more sunflowers that I don't want or maybe something else entirely.

I had read the comments from the Tea Bag ladies, but will go back to one of the first questions I asked about 'Francis Dubreuil', when this thread first began to drift from its original topic: Was the original 'Francis Dubreuil' a "true Tea", or was he a "Hybrid Tea"? Or was he that other thing, a "Tea hybrid"? The earliest descriptions of FD say his color was a dark red with pink or cerise or amaranth highlights. My assumption is that 'FD' was darker than other red Teas, but would not have looked terribly out of place hanging out with other reds such as 'Gen Gallieni', 'M. Tillier', 'Souv. de David d'Angers', 'Mlle Christine de Nouë', ''Corallina', 'Safrano a Fleurs Rouges', 'Princesse de Sagan', 'Bardou Job' and- of course- 'Souv de Therese Levet'. Here's a 1901 review from a German rose reviewer about Francis: "Francis Dubreuil (Dubreuil 1895) is not only one of the most excellent red Tea roses but also one of the best Tea roses of all. The flower is in fact only of medium size, and sometimes even small, but keeps extremely well. It lasts In bud form for a very long time, and is then at its most beautiful. The growth is vigorous and the crown is well branched. What I like most about this rose, is its capacity to produce solitary flowers on long, upright stems, I do not like roses in flower umbels (in clusters). Its floriferousness (flowering period) is very long, it lasts right up to the frosts." That mention of "solitary flowers on long, upright stems" makes me think we might find some HP ancestry in Francis' background, no? And it accords well with other early mentions of FD having "diffuse growth"... Here's an early discrepancy, though; the review above says 'FD' "lasts in bud form for a very long time, and is then at its most beautiful". Contrast that with an earlier British review- Francis "is described as full flower of a fine form, opening very readily, perhaps too much so"... So if Francis was dark red and had diffuse growth, he seems to be quacking like an early HT, and not a "pure Tea"? Was he classified as a Tea because of his fragrance? According to Guillot, 'FD' is descended from 'Souv de David d'Angers' (described as "deliciously fragrant" in 1864) who is in turn descended from 'Caroline', the Tea that may be synonymous with 'Bermuda Spice'. Some early reviews of 'FD' say he is fragrant, most say nothing, and at least one reviewer says "not fragrant". This assortment of varying opinions shouldn't be surprising, given humans' different capacities for smell, and given the way odors can vary according to temperature, time of day, etc. The scent of Tea roses seems to be especially elusive, and elicits a confusion of descriptions, so I'm inclined to believe that the original Francis probably had a Tea scent and was fragrant to some people and not to others. However, I think it's also possible that if there were an early confusion with at least one grower offering a different rose as 'Francis D', the differences in opinion about form and fragrance could stem from an early switcheroo. Just because there was a later mix-up with 'Barcelona' doesn't mean there wasn't also an earlier mix-up somewheres down the line. And if there were an earlier misidentification, this early imposter might be the rose that was later sent from Sangerhausen to Oz in 1981? Another question I have relates to size. The Tea rose grown by Mr Knight just outside of Sydney was a large rose bush. The roses grown in the U.S. and Oz as FD today both seem to be more compact and HT-like (although the Aussie plant that hails from Sangerhausen seems to have a earlier HT look than 'Barcelona' does?) I'm trying to get things straight in my own head, so if I'm off-course in my suppositions, please get me back on track. Virginia

Faucet hunt continues...Brizo Talo anyone?

Thanks momto7. May I ask, how do you like the feel of the spray head in your hand (or perhaps the hand of anyone else in the house with man sized hands)? I am a bit cautious about the no-touch thing...those who have them seem to really like them. Is it battery operated? What happens when the battery dies, does it simply revert back to manual operation? Do you keep the adjustment handle in a favorite position for volume and temp? Can you touch it to start, then adjust temp or volume without accidentally turning it back off? Is it humanly possible for me to ask any more silly questions? Jon

How to continue after receiving germinated palm seeds?
Q
Comments (7)
Tropicbreezent, I just received an advise from RPS where I bought these seeds from. They are advising against leaving the seeds above the soil level as you advised earlier: RarePalmSeeds wrote: "sorry to hear about your failure in growing Adonidia from seeds your purchased from our shop. I noticed some of the germinated seeds are almost uncovered in the pots. Make sure you plant them deep enough (only the shoot above soil level) otherwise the seeds will dry out. Choosing smaller pots with low nutrient soil is advisable, too. One of the most important things is to cover the seedlings with transparent plastic to increase air humidity! Remember where these plants come from, warm and humid tropical areas. Without protection they will dry out and get visible brown leaves in an early stage of their growth. Also choose a bright location without direct sunlight for the pots. Hope this will help you. Good luck with growing your palm trees."

Okey, my brugs aren't done with me yet- i just harvested another pod this evening.
This is another Pink Perfektion cross:

Amber Rose x Pink Perfektion.

Please look up Amber Rose, I can't upload a photo of her right now.

So, Kylie, thanks for the offer- I'll remember! I'm sure folks are paying attention! Those two choices are yours!
Dana, thank you so much for your generous trade offer but I am not in the market for a trade right now. That is so nice of you to offer, tho!
I will have plenty of this last cross. Trying to make Pink Perfection younguns that will behave in the hot weather of the South!
Tom, great looking seedlings, you are doing great with them!
Finger is mending, Pat, thanks- I dreaded getting the pin removed but I didn't feel a thing. Working on getting some mobility back in that little pinkie!
Everyone that responded to the first thread on Sunday, please email me. Y'all are gonna be so covered up with brugs seeds by the time we all harvest our seedpods!
Hugs, Brenda

Those all have the potential to produce some very pretty brugs. I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. Thanks for the offer but I'll pass for now. I have so many pink crosses to start and with the limited space just want to find some yellows. Besides that there's so many people that would love to grow out some of your seeds. Good luck everyone.

Yikes, I am so sorry to hear that hubby lost his job....just keep praying and hold the faith. Things are slowly looking up around here!!! I will pray for your family. And, yes, I have a few seeds left. And plenty when the rest of the pods ripen.

Glad everyone got their seed envelopes so far! You are welcome!!!!
I am holding on to 9 more padded envelopes, They have been ready to go for days, I will go to the PO tomorrow with 4 of them that I feel safe to send----- But, you folks up north, 5 of you, Elizabeth, Cassie, Karen, Celeste, and John, I will not send unless you insist, right now!!! I can send tomorrow with the rest, if you want to take a chance on the seeds being okey during this cold weather. Email me and give me the go ahead!

Okey, here are the pods yet to ripen and they could be ready any day. Regular posters get first dibs, so if I run out, sorry. There is a S&H fee. I also have a few OP/open polinated seedpods, the "who's your daddy?" ones! Email me your interest! Are you getting tired yet? LOL!! Dont't............I still have lots of seeds to share, darn, they just aren't ripe yet!

2 Dorthea x Xena- should be interesting!
2- Pink Perfektion x Dorthea
1- Pink Perfekton x (Bergfeuer x Super Spot/ Volker 2008)- limited number of seeds to share on this cross

I also have 4 more big long seed pods on Amber Rose but for the life of me I cannot remember the crosses- email me if you are interested in Amber Rose seeds.

OP-
1- Dola x ??
2- Inspiraton x ???
1 pod on seedling Divinity

Sorry, din't mean to go on and on!!
