We are breeding for hardy vigorous plants with distinctive flowers of
clear vibrant colors. We are hybridizing mostly tets while
maintaining a small diploid program. Several areas of focus are:
violet/blue colors, toothy edges and good plant habit, although we
are always on the lookout for other unique characteristics in our
seedling fields.
