Default Re: The REAL Blue Java

I have a variegated tall Namwah and variegated "ice cream" sold to me by the same person. I can't tell the difference. I mixed them up at some point as well. I doubt they are different. Is there any way to identify a blue Java vs Namwah without it fruiting?

The current pups on my Blue Java are spoken for, but I should be able to offer some later in the season. There are other members besides myself that do have the Real Deal. I am sure someone will help you out.

Good luck!
