What is 4n, etc??! Male
Default What is 4n, etc??!
bought some plants over the years with 4n on the tag, and some of those plants were more expensive, eg a dendrobium fire wings (4n) was rarer and more expensive than the plain den. Fire wings. How can a plant of the same type have more chromosomes?? And does it make a difference to the plant/ flowers? Better? Worse?

Thanks all
