Kim, I started seeds from Snowrose and they are gorgeous. remember that you have to look at all the blooms or you will miss a really good plant. If you are going to go to the trouble of planting a cross, then be patient and plant those babies up when they are about 2" tall. Sit back and watch all of them bloom. That is how hybridizers do it. They may grow 40 plants and only select one or none to propagate again.

I am going to show you how much difference in blooms grown from the same leaf. All I had were wedges from the same leaf.
Here is a Remembering John grown by leaf at the same time as the second picture.
