I saw this one today, GREETINGS EARTHLING. Fully bearded, but was told its slow to grow. It did have a nice scape and rebloom was growing.
EC seems to be a great bearded parent as seen by pics posted via fb. Mike is doing AMAZING things with this form taking it to Norris stuff. Jon Elliots WMC was seen today too and it was very nice. The pollen issue I think comes from both BBS and LBB. I find it to be about 25% of out cross kids to MS have it.
Emerald Starburst seems to have bearding hidden in it. A friend has a stable bearded kid with it and MS. I would recomend using it in this kind of program.
