All or nothing. The aphylla species leaves seem to have no frost tolerance, thus turn to mush with a hard frost. I don't see that trait in the species crosses.

Thanks Chuck.  That answers my primary question(s).  I'm sure after
mulling this over again, I will have more ;-)

So far, in all the crosses I've made, I don't remember any seedlings
that behaved that way (like you describe for aphylla), with the neat and 
tidy death of foliage rather than frozen to mush, tho I do remember
seeing it in some of the storeboughts years ago.

I guess I was wondering if it had any relationship to dosage, or if you
thought it was simply one or the other (full recessive).
