absolutely stunning ED, thanks for sharing. You can really see the bridgesii in it.

Love the thick glaucous coat on the younger growth, amazing.

She's around 15-20 years old?

That's one chunky mofo Ed...gotsta get me one one day.

I've been meaning to ask how common are glaucous Pachanois?

I have a nice pale beauty that's prolly ~7 years old and has classic pach spination.She was trapped in a 6in pot until I found her last year but someone pinched all but 2ft.

The lick test says she's bitter as.

Yeah, about 15yrs since I planted a cutting.

Pics from '93 show about 2' high.

There's a pachanois in the first two photo's (the 3-4 vertical limbs to the right).

Just hit 'critical' root-mass and has started to boom.

Typical pach-green in colour though.

Seems to me that it appears orange when you preview your post , but defaults to the usual color when you post.

Glad to here from you ED i was wondering what you've been up to since EBA went down. By the way PM/phone me if you are still interested in those cuttings i mentioned , I've got a few well established and putting alot of spring groth that i need to move on or throw out.
