1Y-R seedling

Hi Everyone

Spring has come early here in Dunedin with plenty of flowers out. A cross I did in 2007 was between Ohakune a Max Hamilton raised 1Y-O and Glenfarclas. The cross has yielded a number of good coloured trumpets but the perianth is a touch narrow. Here is a photo of the best one. I intend to pollinate this seedling with one of Peter Ramsay’s 1Y-Rs, Sir Slick. I have attached a phot of the flower as there isn’t an image in daffseek. The other reason for this posting is to get proficient at posting images as intend to post images of the premier blooms from the North Island National show this weekend.

  1. Trevor, Absolutely a beautiful 1 Y-O.  I have tried several 1 Y-O’s over the years; however, here in my Deep South climate, they disappear after a year or two.  I was able to keep ‘Glenfarclas’ for a few years; however, I no longer have it in my garden!
