(Pink Furry Boar x Ananas Noir) x Bosque Green Cherry
I told Lee Goodwin, I'd post these, since this cross involves one of his creations - Bosque Green Cherry.
Anyway, these are (Pink Furry Boar x Ananas Noir) x Bosque Green Cherry F1. I'm pretty excited to see the F2's next year, I think there could be some cool combos of stripes and colors on tasty cherry's. I think Bosque Green is a pretty awesome cherry, and I'd like to keep it's taste and texture, but with coloration that makes it easier to identify ripeness. FY 6-1, FY 6-2, FY 6-3 and FY 6-4 FY 6-4 FY 6-2 and FY 6-1. 6-2 is the main one I'm carrying forward. Nice and sweet, and I like the pink stripes (and core) JL 8-1. Great, great taste. A bit bigger than I'm looking for (and the "horns" are interesting), but I'll definitely carry it forward as well. JL 8-2 Seed is available for anyone else who wants to play.

Just b'c I'm curious, how many different crosses do you have going right now and will it be mainly F2 and F3's that will be available? I ask b'c I hate to see someone get your seeds and then plant out just one plant, sometimes two, and then never carry them forward, which has happened in the past with crosses I've offered in my seed offer. And those who offer those crosses really WANT to see the results , thus my own Fall feedback thread. and anything interesting they would like seeds back as well. Carolyn

Paddy,
Very nice - I would never have thought to put together that combination! I particularly like the blush on both the green and the gold types and the clear skin on the green. Lee |
