Well when I first saw this one as a seedling I was extremely excited. It had a very odd look to it. As it matured I figured no matter what I would name it and release it. But as the plant matured it began to frustrate me. It had odd roundish dark leaves that came out multicolored but would not produce a bloom. Finally after a full summer it did produce a very very small red flower. Then another bracket I was hoping it would produce larger flowers this time but still small red flowers. It grew to about 7 ft tall. I have thought about it and am considering not to release it but rather just breed with it more. I do not want to be known for releasing hybrids that do not perform well and this one has had a hard time proving it to me. I will work on it next year with breeding. I doubt I will release any unless someone ask solely for it in the spring.
