Alot would also depend on how close they are to the river itself. There were pictures of bricks and asphalt uplifted and taken downstream on the news yesterday. The river flow itself would likely take a big toll and take some away. Hosing away the silt would help a lot when you can use water again.

Judi_P has her kids staying with her. They will be going by to check on the house today. She expects basement flooding only for them, but who knows. She has some flooding in the basement herself, but isn't inside the flood zone itself. Chellilyn can tell you herself, but so far so good. I am on a hi...

I have a Revolution sport with a fine white line from the stem to the tip of the leaves. Hope it holds the coloring this year.

Thanks for the background information Bill. If I hadn't already promised the crown to a friend (who doesn't care what it is anyway), I'd plant it somewhere near my Halcyon to watch for a while to see if I could see any differences just out of curiosity. I know my friend will just enjoy it cause it i...

Thanks guys. I could just label it "Halcyon - sport from June"
Since the parent is Halcyon and has those characteristics, I will probably give it to one of those people who don't really even care what the name is. (Yes I still associate with some of "those" people :D

Blue sport of June

I am assuming that the blue sport (or reversion) from June has a name? I have one, so was wondering what to put on it for a name when I seperate it.

I went to his website (I think that's where I got the address) in June and sent an email requesting that I get an email notification when the book is published. I got a reply that I will be notified.
