Step Sibling

Post by leafmould »

This seedling is a step sibling to the seedling Danny won on the first look auction, the one they called
'Leafmoulds Coolest Seedling' 8-) (congrats Danny :beer:

The pod parent on this seedling is the same, a Streaked 'Hadspen Heron' hybrid of mine and another hybrid, a very blue corrugated cup, the pollen parent.( Bill has this seedling on the cover page to Hostapix)

This seedling is developing nicely with a gold margin, the margin on the newer leaves getting wider.
Taken this morning in natural light, in a one gal.pot.

Leafy, that beautiful blue is the pollen parent, isn't it? You labeled it the pod parent.

You did that just to see if we're paying attention.
