Default Re: SH 3640 Taste Report

I tried asking my dog, but he is only half Jack Russel, so he's no help.

Thanks for the side by side comparisons. I'm gonna look through my computer and see if I have better photos from my yard. I think that one is a little dark and therefore a little more difficult to evaluate.

I do see some similarities and differences. The coloring of your plant seems to be very similar to the TARS photo, where as mine and Bananimal's has red in the p-steam and at the edges of the petioles. The bell shape of your flower seems similar to Bananimal's (a little more elongated) whereas mine seems more similar to the TARS photo. Also the length of the fingers relative to the girth seems to be a little longer in your plant with the other three being more similar to each other. The petals of the flowers in mine do seem a bit purple, but I wonder if that has anything to do with the lighting. Like I said I"ll see if I can find another photo or two and compare the two flowers I've had since planting this mat.

Is there anything in the climate/soil that can influence some of these things such as color? I believe I've heard of that here on the forum before, but I haven't researched it for myself yet.

That's what I see, but I'm just a novice. Hope I'm not irritating you. I would like to think our supplier sent us both the same plant.
