Australis's blog: My goal for this blog

Posted on Nov 14, 2022 5:05 AM

I have been thinking about creating a blog on this site for some time, but never quite had a driving reason to do so. In the last year, however, my wife and I purchased a property with a sizeable garden and now have the prospect of growing and flowering a larger number of my own seedlings.

The main genera that I grow are Liliums, Irises and Cymbidiums. I enjoy tinkering with each and have had many learning experiences and failures on the path to getting my own seedlings. This year has seen my second Iris cross start to bloom as well as the second flowering of several of my own Liliums. I have also received Cymbidium seedlings from my own crosses, although they are still some years away from flowering!

My hope is that this will serve as a way to document the results of each cross and give other growers using the same plants a bit of a headstart on what to expect from them. I will probably also share some of my other gardening experiences and occasionally some cat-related interludes!
