grow many SIBs or JIs but this would seem unusual for either class. Christy says it does not grow like this for her. Comments?

WOW! Christy and Rodney. Thanks for sharing. This is one that should be
in everybody's JI hybridizing program. I have never seen a JI so
round, so firm, so fully packed, and so free and easy on the
branching! Tremendous! And, it did this in Texas, notoriously bad
JI country.
