Re: IB:LOW HO SILVER ( freak bloom )
From: "Patrick Orr" <PatrickJOrr@hotmail.com>
I have experienced a similar mutation with the BB Christown Jubilee this
spring. There were three falls and one standard and two style arms. I asked
the hyrbidizer of CJ about it and he said that sometimes they do that. I
was also advised not to propagate it or use its pollen. We do not want to
propogate those types of mutations.
