Twit and Bev, I just came across this post. Sorry I am so late to the discussion.
I did get it from you twit in 2011. It has done very well for me. I think the difference we are seeing is a result of very different growing conditions. Mine are subjected to year round full sun/wind/heat/cold/ice, etc. I think it make the plant much more compact in growth habit. I have looked this semp up on other reputable sites and find it to be correct.
Thank you twit for the wonderful little gem.
