Not Gene, but think he was meaning different plants and variation
depending on what plant was started with and whether it was
propagated by TC or spore - if spore, will get variations as it's
the same as growing open pollinated seed in a way - never totally
identical to the parent plant(s).
Like that idea - fern with B. 'Rosy Glow'...will try that one.
