Tropicals & Tender Perennials: I really hit the lotto, 0 by Kell

Donna, no. This is a brand new variety of flax, I bet they got it by a sport. These seem to put out sports easily. I am starting to crave them. Unfortunately they grow into big clumps. But I am ignoring that part. LOL. There are so many and so many pink ones!! Be still my pink heart. I am going to start potting them with Heuchera in matching colors. I also seem to be collecting those. I just love the colors so much. I am nuts.

Thanks Jeanne. I really lucked out. I got a single white from this cross also. Spin of the wheel. Have you gotten any pink doubles from all your Monika seeds? I know you have Peach Chiffon, one I always enjoyed seeing.

3 more blooms opened tonight. This one I pulled out a whole piece of it when I was getting her anthers out, but I can't even tell where now. I will say getting the anthers and pollinating these is not an easy job. Especially since this is a tall tree. I have to get up on a step stool. Too many layers of petals and they are all attached. Today I used 2 very special pollens from my growing plots. One is the darkest brug I have ever seen and the other is one has spider tendrils. I am praying they take.
