Thanks Lynn! It's good to hear that they are tough! I can't wait to start collecting... um, wrong choice of words ... growing them! I'm so fascinated by the change of color that they go through. I had no idea that they did that! I thought that they just grew babies, which is pretty cool too, but the change in color is what has me really interested in them. Had I known this before, I would have been growing them all along. I'm pretty sure that I had seen multiple pictures of the same variety, but didn't realize that it was the same one, due to the big change that they go through. It's a really awesome plant!

I stopped at a small nursery in the city today to buy some tomato plants, and they had Silver King, which is what I was looking for on here tonight. I was happy to see that it was listed as a "rabbit" One of the small 4" pots was packed full, but that didn't really tell me much. It was pretty, and red, and I loved it, but I wanted to get a little more information on it before buying it. Mainly, did it grow fast, which this thread shows that it does. I'll get it the next time I'm in the city! I'm going to order some from Chris (goldfinch4), too!
