The two open pollinated greenhouse varieties will be (hopefully) grafted onto Estamino F1 rootstock for some extra vigour and disease resistance. If the grafting is a success then I'll probably ditch the hybrids in the greenhouse and go back to interesting open pollinated varieties next year.
Almost all of the outdoor varieties are blight resistant, except for Orange Paruche, Sparky XSL and Super Mama. One plant each of most, except for Nagina and Super Mama which will (maybe) be 9 of each.
Greenhouse:
Big Daddy F1
Bountiful F1
Burlesque F1
Girl Girl's Weird Thing
Pink Honeymoon F1
Polaris
Rose Crush F1
Y Ddraig Goch F1
Outdoors:
Vine Cherries/Mediums:
Black Moon F1
Cocktail Crush F1
Crimson Crush F1
Crokini F1
Merrygold F1
Orange Paruche
Rubylicious F1
Sparky XSL
Toddler F1
Vine Plums:
Nagina F1
Super Mama F1
Bush Cherries:
Celano F1
Lizzano F1
Losetto F1
Orangeto F1
Romello F1
Mine is mostly the same except Cowboy has replaced Girl Girl's Weird Thing in the greenhouse. Outdoors, I added Consuelo (Crimson Cherry). The Orange Paruche aren't looking very happy, seem quite susceptible to septoria or some other early fungal disease, so I haven't planted one yet. I didn't sow Romello, and replaced Lizzano with Terenzo.
