This cultivar is of unknown origin. Some, such as Peter Q. Rose, consider it to be identical to \u2018Midas Touch\u2019. Others, like Laurence C. Hatch, consider them to be different. Below are photos of the two cultivars as they appear in our nursery. For our part, we continue to treat them as two different cultivars.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
