TyTy looks overpriced unless they are shipping large, established plants.

I'm thinking of getting a Carolina King and Texas Star from them to try up here in zone 7B/8A along side my Cali. Gold to see if any of them are as cold hardy as they claim, but TyTy seems dodgy to me. What do you think?
If I recall correctly, Gabe said several years ago that my Variegated Tanee is probably Balbisiana. My pups grow well. Our winter was fairly mild so I'm hoping that my mother plant fruits this year.

I've got a large one (maybe 6' in a pot) available for purchase at a modest price if someone can pick it up locally (lower Sacramento County).
