Seedlings for Postage

I'm culling some seedlings that some of you might want. These are all seedlings that regularly have between 11-13 buds. They aren't quite good enough in buds for me to register, and I don't forsee doing further hybridizing with them.

Precious Candy X Twilight Illusion #2 Lavender bloom 5.5 inches on 24- inch scapes. It has rebloomed in the past, but not lately since it's in too much shade. It's a fairly hardy evergreen that was not affected by our bad winter with multiple zero days. It does set seed. It's the sibling to my Untamed Heart intro from this year.

Mokan Butterfly x Bali Watercolor - 31 inches tall with a 7 inch bloom, semi-evergreen. Has never rebloomed. Sets pods in the shade, but not in the sun. Midseason bloomer. I've attempted to cross it with UFs.I

Robes for the Queen x Black Falcon Ritual - 5.5 inch bloom on 26 inch scapes. Semi-evergreen. No rebloom. Fertile. Midseason bloomer.

Dust Be Diamonds x Tuxedo Junction - 6 inch bloom on 27 inch scapes, semi-evergreen, early bloomer. Has not rebloomed for me. Ivory with pink undertones, frosts to pure white by afternoon. I will be keeping some of this, and should it ever improve on bud count I will registered it. In the old seedling bed, one scape had 20 buds one year. But it has never come close to that since.

Blessed Art Thou x Great White - Second year for this one to bloom. It's still just one fan. I'm offering this one because the lavender color is so nice, and it's a large 6-inch bloom. Scapes have only been 22 inches, but it's surrounded by multi-fan seedlings with huskier foliage. I think with some room and good sun exposure it would be much taller and have more buds. Nine buds both seasons. It had instant rebloom last season. I think it's semi-evergreen.

Spacecoast Francis Busby x Blazing Cannons - more orangey red than this photo shows. Has 6 inch bloom on 28-inch scapes with 9-11 buds. It has not rebloomed for me. Sets pods in high heat.Semi-evergreen.
