Or maybe Camille can come along and respond?

I defer to Camille on this one. She is the one with real knowledge of the genetics... I only can guess, my guesses aren't even educated ones.

Probably very last page of the thread.

Thanks for the interesting history of Harlequins! I've got 2 that were given to me and I don't like them very much - perhaps I'll look at them differently now

As the second growth front is part of the same plant, how could its genetics be different? It is a single, living creature, so can only have one set of genes.
