I have a hunch it will be the 980 Fredricks.

Since I'm growing it, I'll say the 1304 too. Its a spitting image of its mother (1610 Leiber).

Agree about the 1059, just wish I had one

I'm growing the 1304 Sperry (1610 x 1161). It will be in the ground this Sunday. The plant is really healthy and strong. There is also the Wallace 1377 (1610 x 1810). That would be a good one too.

I actually have both these plants growing right now. I can only choose one and I'm not sure which one to go with.

The AVGVG seed of the year may grow a big orange beauty. The 830 Kenneally- 1421 Stelts x 1610 Lieber is promising for size and color.

For true orange, Jim Gerheardt's 923 Gerheardt x 1332 Wolf may be the way to go.

My vote is for Glenna's 1244 , then Scottie Dimarco's 1216.5 (1385 nice orange x 1495 nice orange), and John Williams 1085 (1610 x 772} also Kevin's 994 (1495 x 1421).

Thanks so much for your votes for my 1244. It was 15.5% above the estimate....very healthy plant and easy to manage. I'm excited that so many growers have decided to plant it. Best of luck to you!!

Talk is cheap. Plant two of your own and let me know what happens.
