Yea, we've talked about that Highgate Cavendish on the forum before and TARS does list it as a Cavendish and it was removed. It's kind of sad, I believe the donor gave a Cav & a DGM and both turned out to be incorrect and were removed, the Cav was a GM & the GM a Cav.

The dwarf Gros Michel I'm growing is definitely a dwarf and definitely a Gros Michel. I was just hoping you knew which one, I'll find the #.
