Dorthea x Jacayna seed contest

La Grange, TX(Zone 8b)

I was surprised it took so long for the seedpods on Dorthea to mature. They formed last November. I removed the last of the pods yesterday.

Guess the number of seeds in the pod. The person who guess the number or comes closest will get 15 seeds of the cross. I will post a photo of the seedpod involved. You get 2 guesses only.

This is a photo of the parents.

I'm sorry I thought I had posted the winner. The number of seeds in the pod was 161. Kim was the winner. I have to get the seeds out to her this coming week. It's been a long "summer".
