ShakespearesGarden said:I read through the guy's patent. It looks like he started with a bunch of his own seedlings, mixed up pollen and dabbed it on everything he had already grown. Sounds like a messy way to create a plant...
"The new cultivar arose from crosses made in summer of 2006. Proprietary seed parent lines were pollinated with a mixture of pollen collected from proprietary pollen parents and the collected seeds were pooled and sown for evaluation. `VER00204` was selected as a single unique plant from the resulting seedlings in summer of 2009. The specific parents are unknown and none of the possible parent plants are named or patented." Third paragraph under background of invention.
