(m. Velutina x (m. Basjoo x m. Velutina) ) x m. Basjoo. I think in that order of nomenclature should result in what I was speaking of, if anyone's interested.
This seems like my programming command. It is interesting that I've never heard, read... about a basjoo x edible cross that would be both edible and hardy. I doubt people haven't tried, where's the hoax then? Why is it possible to try and cross only inedibles? Sikki likes edible varieties for males...
