Re: TB:Missing Parts on SA

From: "Donald Eaves" <donald@eastland.net>

Hello Folks,

I'm not a judge, so this qualifies as personal opinion only.   I'm
neutral on SA appendages.  They are neither a reason to acquire
a cultivar, nor a reason not to acquire one.  I quite liked the spoons
and horns when they were uniform on a bloom.  I did not care for
them when they were mixed (spoon/horn) on the same bloom, nor
when one or two beards had appendages and the rest were normal
beards without any appendage.  I would have preferred a stalk of
blooms to have been consistant as well.  THORNBIRD once had
the top two blooms with spoons and the third with horns all open
at once.  I found this distracting, tho individually each bloom was
consistant.  I found that more tolerable than inconsistancy on the
bloom itself.
