Hello Pearl,

Here's one taken in 2004 here.  One thing the photos show is a brighter 
orange in the beard than is true.  It really is a dullish mustard color.  As 
for being gray, I'd have said it was was really a blue-white with somewhat 
more blue in the standards than the falls.  Those don't usually have the 
orangish beard so QQ looks different from the others I've grown.  It's not 
very 'quaint'.  It's a large, blocky bloom with more attractive shape than 
my photo indicates.  It has also been a reasonably good grower and performer 
here.  I don't know what its fate is this year, though.  Yet another day 
well over the century mark here and another one predicted tomorrow.  I'm 
basically just watching things die here and after a while I just sort of 
quit looking.  I guess it'll weed out those that can't take drought and high 
temps.  Nothing says I have to like it.
