Update on rose crosses

 An update for the three crosses that successfully set seed. I will link the post that I had with the list of crosses that I made.

Marianne X Blue For You: Harvested 10/29/23 and put in the fridge around that time.  19 seeds. Checked on 1/30, no seeds germinated. Went ahead and planted in tray and put under lights.
