Hi
I would like To start a list of Ot's that people have found or have read about of Fertile OT's. Mentioned if they are Pollen or Pod fertile and If the are a Known tetra/triploid or polypoid.
Thanks Dennis
List of Fertile OT"s
Good idea!
Scene Stealer = pollen fertile
Silk Road X (RCA X RCC) [Sims] My colleague in Wisconsin has confirmed the vigour of this cross. How about a picture, colleague?
I have read that Silk Road is fertile with many tetraploid and OT lilies. Pictured is the seedling from RCA X RCC used in the cross.
Dennis, you might also get some ideas from the NALS seed list Div. VIII. Of course you really don't know if the crosses are fertile unless you buy the seed and try it out. The list is out now to donors so I've seen it. There is a "Silk Road OP" X "mixed OT". The photo of Silk Road OP looks like a yellow OT. Interesting....
I've also had success with American West X tet trumpet. Germination was low but a few germinated.
I don't know if this is helpful for you but I will pay more attention to what I find success with this coming season.
Here is a photo of of that cross for you pard. It has done amazingly well for me so far. Just under 4 months of growth here.
I saved some 'Awesome' seed (I know it's not an OT, but this is my first official seed, so let me be just a bit excited at the growth ;) ). I was amazed at how robust the growth was. These are less than two months old. And to think, I almost tossed them, thinking none of the seed was good.
