Already, I can tell you that yours and Tony's are different plants called TX Star. FYI, the lady that Scot bought Tony's plant from did not buy it from TTN. She just "decided" that it has characteristics that are similar to TX Star from what she's read, and hence called it so.
I think the best source for a true TX Star is still TTN. But it might take a trip to Ty Ty, GA and a lot of tact and patience to get the prize. Or, a trip to Wichita Falls, TX and a lot patience. Or, a giant leap of faith - for some.

I'm intrigued that my comment intrigued you. Better than to have bored you, I guess.
My source bought his Texas Star from TTN many years ago and he thinks it's performed to the description they've given it, so I think he got lucky. I don't have the time or patience, nor willingness to spend the kind of money it would take to go to TTN in person.

Tony, if yours doesn't work out I can send you one of mine later on. Write me off list. Otherwise, I will probably plant two in the ground and keep one in the greenhouse so it can get larger before going into the ground next spring.
