Re: tectorum
Will,
It certainly has all the normal characteristics of I.tectorum, except color
and intensity of markings. I have never seen one of such deep color and
prominent "etchings" as this. Whatever....it is a keeper; a beautiful
flower!
What little experience I have had growing I.tectorum, there does seem to be
quite a bit of variation in it's habit, so it could be natural (my guess)
but if so......WOW!
