Another cross for the Rainbow Pea project, also made in 2014.
I've talked about crimson-flowered Unity in this thread http://www.growingfoodsavingseeds.co...136-ra-x-unity, and white-flowed Telephone here http://www.growingfoodsavingseeds.co...lephone-x-haka.
The cross is almost exactly the same as Telephone x Haka, except we're looking at a different flower colour - crimson, in this case. I'll select in the same way too, culling short plants and white plants. About 3/64 of the F2 will be tall and crimson, and again I'm growing about 100 plants.
