In addition to these 70 seeds, I picked through a couple hundred flower heads from my Gapland Gold which has never made a single seed in the past two years. This year, I'd pollinated it heavily with red-eyed annual sunflower pollen. Well a couple of hours of picking got me five seeds!!! Hopefully one of these backcross seeds will be perennial, red-flowered and long blooming like Gapland Gold.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05251272906203857137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8292730528124689534.post-54810399043110711392013-11-04T07:56:49.657-08:002013-11-04T07:56:49.657-08:00Very interested to see your results with this.Very interested to see your results with this.starryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11737768874983571870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8292730528124689534.post-55230046580354497422013-11-04T07:56:04.980-08:002013-11-04T07:56:04.980-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.starryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11737768874983571870noreply@blogger.com
