I keep wondering if hardiness has anything to do with saturated pigment in
the bloom. I know it is all genetics and as such has been subjected to a
century of being in the hybridizing Cuisinart, as it were, and some pigments
come from some species that are hardier, but I just keep wondering there is
any anecdotal support for the notion that dark ones are hardier than light
ones in the bearded stuff.... is this something everyone takes for granted
but I'm just figuring out....?
