Basye's "Probable Amphidiploid" now extinct?

[Trying to visualize Tom Carruth in a pork-pie hat driving his souped-up custom low-rider with the “pimp” plates…]

As a matter of curiosity, Kim, reflecting on your recollection of the plants, would you say the Amphidiploid, from outward appearances, would have (had) less to offer than e.g. R. Kordesii?

And lest I forgot to acknowledge your earlier offer for cuttings, Yes, please!! (Is it relatively easy to strike?)

I have no idea about your first question, Philip. As for the second, there are many others more difficult to root.
