Diana,
Sounds like you got a good one going . BE Careful! these things can turn
on ya quicker than a rattler. Also be cautous as I believe Hera was a 875
dill which weighed light by about 150lbs. The male pollenator in the 875
..........a 715dill wasn't much better and was about 140lb light. So be
prepared She may follow suit. From the picture you show on the web those
sunken blossom ends are thin. BE careful!!...........MB
