For all of those people that missed out on my first giveaway, these are some of my personal crosses.

Again all that is required is a bubble pack with postage and a note indicating what seed you want.

As you will see below, some seeds I have a surplus of and some I do not have many of. Regarding the low quantity seeds, please only request if you are going to plant. If I receive many requests for a particular seed, it may fall into the low seed quantity category.

Also I will only be taking requests until December 31st, 2005.

Thank you for understanding.

The 2005 selection, all had great orange color:
(I have digital pictures of these that I can send by request)

983.6 DeBacco ‘05 (must e-mail privately )

The 983.6 has a requirement, since I only have about 20 seeds currently available for distribution; if you request this seed you must agree to plant it next year. (Just to warn you ahead of time the seeds do have some small black spots on them. I did not get a fan on them as soon as I should have. However, I do not think this will affect germination.)

770 DeBacco ‘05
If you are part of the CT pumpkin and squash growers club you will be receiving one of these, and due to that distribution only serious requests at this time please.

F: 783 Daletas ‘00 (F: 500 Hebb. ‘96 est X 801.5 Stelts ‘97)
M: 855 Black ‘03 (F: 1260 Weir ‘01 X 801.5 Stelts ‘97)

460 DeBacco ‘05 UOW

F: 783 Daletas ‘00 (F: 500 Hebb. ‘96 est X 801.5 Stelts ‘97)
M: 855 Black ‘03 (F: 1260 Weir ‘01 X 801.5 Stelts ‘97)

222 DeBacco ‘05 UOW
(had a very red/orange color)

F: 1101 Northrup ‘03 (F: 670 Daigle ‘03 X 810 Dill ‘99)
M: 869.5 Calai ‘00 (F: 846 Calai ‘99 X 801.5 Stelts ‘97)

The 770 and 460 were both grown on the same plant and I made the same cross, do we have another 1230/1016 comparison? I would really like someone to grow both side-by side to compare the two plants, but I realize planting space is limited. (Just an idea.)

Good luck to everyone in 2006!!

Sorry, I mis-labeled the parents of the 923 Ciliberto '01 which grew my 376 DeBacco '03.

It should read:
923 Ciliberto '01(F:983.6 Ciliberto '00 X 723 Bobier '99)

Sorry for the confusion.
