I got my 'Queen of the Seas' in 2009 from Hallson's. It's still one of my favorites.

Queen of the Seas is a real standout in my garden this year (I bought it from Hallsons in 2007). It seems extra tall and extra frilly on the edges to me

Thats a real beauty-so is your Tokudama F. I lost my Tokudama A. this year-never came up :bawl: So I guess I have to wait a couple more years for my QOTS to really put on a show.

Mine still has only 1 eye. I bought it before I discovered Chris's place. :(
