Cross List Organized by Year

This is a directory of our crosses that were fully grown out to flowering size.   We produce a large volume of crosses every year, but not all of them make it into the lab and then to the greenhouse. Our crosses on this page are organized by the year they were originally made. 

At this time we are not listing out new unregistered crosses, as a result this page does not reflect all the crosses that we currently have in production in the lab and greenhouse.  As we flower and register new crosses, they will be added to this list.  I'm including crosses that are remakes of existing grexes that have not flowered yet.  If there is no picture or just pictures of the parents, then we have not flowered out the cross.

Note, while there are links to the detail page for each cross, these pages are still under construction and are missing some data and formatting.

2020 Hybrids

A very high volume of crosses went into the lab in 2018 and 2019, so I'm only making very targeted crosses in 2020. The lab is overloaded right now. I had to add more shelving and lighting to grow out flasks, completely ran out of bottles and am aggressively prioritizing what get's replated out.

2019 Hybrids

Most of the 2019 crosses in the lab are unregistered. We are utilizing a lot of our hybrids and doing some new breeding that target's getting past some of the inheritance challenges with coeruleas. There are a few remakes moving into tetraploid breeding and some line breeding. Some of those crosses are listed, but the majority of the crosses for the last few years will be listed here once they have bloomed out and are registered.

2018 Hybrids

You'll notice a series of hybrids using Gelblieber over the last couple of years. During this period of time I'm working on the building blocks for some novelty coeruleas recreating parents that have traditional been extremely import in this type of breeding. These new coeruleas lines were made possible by our coerulea friendly amboinensis. There are a lot more crosses in the lab than I can list out here, so expect this list of 2018 crosses to continue to grow over the next couple of years. (I was looking at my records; I made 159 crosses in 2018 and 53 of those crosses went into the lab. I don't have a final total yet, but I expect 20 to 30 or more will be grown out.)

2017 Hybrids

2015 through 2017 were rough years for me with a heavy work load for my day job. This was a depressing time for me on the hybridizing front, I did make some crosses during this time period but in 2105 and 16 I wasn't able to get any crosses into the lab. I did get crosses into the lab in 2017, but I'm just now getting caught up on some of those crosses. So unfortunately we won't start seeing some of the 2016 crosses blooming out until 2021. I feel like I'm just really starting to get caught up from this time period.

2014 Hybrids

Unfortunately as of 2020 I still have a few of the 2014 crosses in the lab. I'm trying to get caught up and get them into the greenhouse. It's really sad on my end to think how far behind I got. It's one of the disadvantages of running a small operation by your self and doing all of your own labwork. If life get's in the way, it can be hard to catch back up.

2009 Hybrids

2007 through 2009 taught us a lot about the inheritance of the coerulea color form and unfortunately made it apparent just how difficult it was going to be to combine different lines successfully. As a part of this, it also become very clear that we were not just going to be able to breed with large whites and increase size. The magnitude of the problem was now clear and it really changed how I would approach coerulea hybridizing going forward.
