Roger, what are you looking for, If it's color the you have one choice and that's the 1323 Sherwood, the 1527 Stelts should have nice color also, with the 1370 in the mix.
My picks would be 1323 Sherwood, 1527 Stelts, and 1045 Horton, cross I would plan for
1323 Sherwood X 1527 Stelts
1527 Stelts X 1045 Horton
1045 Horton X 1527 Stelts
Bottom line, start all 5, plant them, and cull the 2 weekest,

Roger..I agree with Eddie..start them all and then pick 3...I double plant each site in case I lose one of then..so starting 2 extra plants is not an overkill. Dave G, Ray L and Me are all within 20 miles of you so don't worry about saving seeds for next year...we are all generous about sharing seeds. Mark

All those seeds I think have potential to go big. My favorite cross however is the 1154 Doucet. Both parents had great first years and everyone I have talked to found them to be trouble free plants.
