Casanova can be lots bigger and prettier, but this day I wanted his . . pollen, is all. I wonder if any of you grow Wallflower? IF so, throw its pollen around this spring and stand back. It gives wonderful color intensity to the other parent and nearly never gives browns unless the other parent is brown. Fun, fun, fun. I wish I still had a Wallflower myself. peace, Barry |
