thanks---good plans

Cool. I have my white swans next to purples, and I haven't seen any crossing yet. I'll have to keep my eyes open.

Your coneflowers look great in general,especially the white. Mine are always so dirty looking.

Hopefully your new coneflower will come back next year. Keep us posted!

I've got several like that. I like them so much. Tennessee coneflowers make some interesting crosses as well.

Dee,
White Swan took a while to establish in the gardens. I remember thinking I was going to remove them a couple of years ago, but being the procrastinator I am, the deed never got done. What is it they say... Things happen for a reason? They are really spectacular this year and I must go out and appologize to them for the thought of culling them. :O)

Ech,

Tennessee Coneflowers, eh? I'll have to look them up and see if I can get seeds to ws when the snow flies. Thanks for the tip!

LOL, Tiff, maybe I should go out to the garden and threaten to get rid of my white swans! Maybe then they'll shape up!

I meant to ask you - are you going to try to sow seed from this cross? Might be interesting to see what happens.

Dee,

I have so many others on the go right now that I might just leave this one alone in terms of seed collecting until next year. I do plan on wsing seeds from two others this year. There is a Pink Delight and an unknown white on the other side of the property so I'll be trying seed from both. The bees have just been jumping from one to the other for the last month. :O)
