Mark, my 96 this year is a solid cross that I will be growing. It's all 108.75 Eaton and 135 Jacobus. I have a few 108.75 Eaton's that I will cross back into it.

You must have deleted my last message. My 96 from 2012 was grown off my 92.5 and pollinated with a 135 Jacobus. That's what I sending to you. Look six posts up from this one.

You probably got them in the veggie exchange a year or two ago. I sent you a pic of the 96 seed pack, and the boy in the cool boots is posing with the 96.

Yes the picture is on worldwidegiantgrowers.com Garden photos page.You can count the ladder pegs & see it's 8 feet long.

I'd say the 108.75 Eaton and the 122 Wursten. The first one grew the WR and the second one grew the 130 Horde that would have blown it away if it had been somewhere near straight and finished growing.
