Don Quixote *Edited with pic*

Post by mooie »

Hi ya,

Are there sports from Don Quixote? Mine is doing crazy stuff out there and I took a look at Don Stevens which it sported from and it looks absolutely nothing like it. I didn't grab a pic tonite but will tomorrow. This plant is absolutely beautiful!

Took all day to scrounge around to find enough battery power to keep my digi going for all of 3 minutes! Here's the pic.

Hi Mooie - According to Hugo's database there is one unregistered sport from Charlie Seaver called 'Don Juan'. It's the reverse of 'Don Stevens' with a 'yellow center, loose wavy, dark glossy green edge, & maroon scape.' Can't wait to see what your DQ is doing!! :D

I chopped up my Don Q last fall. Two divisions came back looking like this . . . .

Looks like 'Don Juan' has brothers popping up everywhere. :wink:

Well I can say surely enough that my Don Quixote doesn't look like the bottom half of your photo!! Myhostas.net says it throws yellow centered sports but I've never seen one before. Way cool!!! :D
