There are large images available by clicking on the small pictures below. The large pictures are 30 Kb to 100 Kb in size, and most are in the JPEG format. Photos were made using Kodak Gold 400 negative film or Ektachrome 200 slide film.
ANTIQUE COPPER CHARM (Andrea Strother, 1999) tet Ht 29.0, ML, Flwr 4.75, Dor, Round, light copper with gold edging and slight dust red eye. This is a very fertile pod parent. $20.00
BYZANTIUM (Jim Shields, 1999), seedling #652T01, is an Early-Mid season bloomer, Semi-Evergreen tetraploid, with large flowers that tend to recurve strongly to about 5" diameter. The color has proved very difficult to capture on film and even more so on computer screens; it seems to me to be a rose-umber shade. It carries 12 to 16 buds. Other seedlings in this cross were pink and purple. Pollen parent, #463T03, was a red-brown. It's pollen is sinfully fertile; it is also pod fertile, but less so than with its pollen. Tet, Ht. 26.0, EM. Pedigree: [click here]. $75.00
