Same here (very limited sample size). Depending on what lives till next
year, I will sort out what did best and leaf width and chromosome number
- not enough foliage on any of them but EWEN and my old weeds to say
anything other than that the other cultivars I have tried don't do
nearly as well, regardless of leaf width.
