Second unnamed Lobitz grow out bean was #15 SuxYeE. A true bush in growth. The original seed looked like the new seed I got. The difference being the new seed looked brighter and the bean threw off one solid white segregation. I have attached the name of Jacob's Prairie (after Jaccob's Prairie, Minnesota. located in Stearns county) to the bean in the first photo and no name to the bean in the second photo.

#110 - "Jacob's Prairie"

#15 SuxYeE

The third Lobitz unnamed bean grow out was 30a 97D-00M-03A. A true bush in growth. The original seed was smaller that Ron Thuma sent to me grown in 2010 and, colored the same as new seed I had grown in 2015. The new seed also did not produce any segregations or off types which was also the case with the seed grown in 2015. The bean has a very light skin tone color with nearly a trout pattern like Jacob's Cattle. I have attached the named "Gold Creek Trout" Robert had named a bean "Gold Creek Beauty" and I thought the coloration of this new bean being very light and similar in color tone to "Gold Creek Beauty" and was fitting to that logic.

#111 - "Gold Creek Trout"
