I consider it a red (nice ol' brown thing), and suspect that one of those two
older rot surviving varieties I mentioned before might be SPARTAN.

How could I forget my ol beloved rot resistant VITAFIRE.  One of my favorites

in the summer, like VANITY.  (Clarence, Lloyd, which ancestor does that
characteristic come from?)
