I was kind of lazy about keeping this thread updated, but things went mostly okay with my flower and I harvested the last of the seeds yesterday. I don't have super high hopes for getting good sprouts from them - this photo does not do justice to how miniscule they are - but at least there are...
Oh yeah, my brain misinterpreted the 'Helen' as breeder data and I thought they must just be exceptionally chunky. Clone A is particularly neat - I feel like it's rare to see a spectabilis hyrbid that keeps the really clear striping vs. blushing red.
I definitely will. I would be thrilled to...
