Hope that's not another D. Orinoco TC packaged as CA Gold. It would be nice if it's at least a TC of the actual CA Gold.

I bought their Greenhouse Business book, and I didn't find anything new in it. I'm not complaining. They're practicing what they preach.

I really know of only two sources of TX Star - GA and TX. Unless GB got their stock from either source and TC'd them, I will be skeptical as to whether it's the same as the one from Ty Ty.

Harvey got several pups of TX Star from a grower from UT after I posted his pictures here. The grower indicated that he got his stock from TyTy.

Thanks again.
