Just two seedlings
Posted: May 08, 2014 10:44 pm
Note: I'm not a serious hybridizer, but like to grow a few seedlings from time to time for fun.
I started these last year, taking seeds right off a scape that someone brought to our seed swap and called it 'Leprechaun'. I suspect, however, that this was OP from 'Lakeside Leprechaun'.
The first one (wavy green): Even at 2 years, I like the color and ruffles, and it seems vigorous. It seems more glaucous in real light.
The second one has a strange center vein. I can't imagine it showed this last year, but there must be some reason it made it through the culling process. Maybe this is a result of our late cold snap.
The others I kept from last year are less interesting, although one is pretty beefy for a 2nd year plant.
