Here it is Ernie. I thought I had posted it before.

Very nice!

The sweet color on that tonsum explains the rich overlay on my Ton-Ton [provisional] then. I meant to take Ton-Ton to judging, but logistics prevented it. I'm afraid the dorsal will start to reflex before we judge next but there is another bud on a second growth. For those confused, this is spillover from another thread on Star Wars themed grex names. Ton-Ton is the pending name for (tonsum X S Gratrix) OR a beast you ride in the snow which looks like a cross between a kangaroo and a yak. Han says they smell bad inside and out too.

They make crazy noises too. agahhhgaggaa. The name is actually not provisional. It was accepted just not on their website yet. I have written confirmation.

My mistake on the provisional business. I've been wrong before and will be at some point again. Will try to post our Ton-Ton. Al has one posted on his web site- if you folks don't have any of Al's plants, you're missing out. Superb grower and great guy.

Again, that isn't ours... ours is nicer! Fuller, flatter dorsal and no color breaks.

the actual clone 'david' or a selfing? Has the pouch bloomed better since? It usually does.
