Does anybody grow either of these? I can't find Root Beer in the database or on the AHS cultivar search but I can find it for sale at various web sites. I've found Starling and it is listed as a tetraploid, is it? I've had these for many years and don't know if Root Beer was ever registered (probably not since I can't find it). Some places list it as tetraploid and others diploid, any body know? Both set open pollinated pods on them but are both in a group of old cultivars some of which I've long since lost the names of and don't know what's tet. and whats dip. I'm trying to sort out (the best I can anyway) what cultivars I have (I do remember most of what I bought) and get them labeled and any I can't identify will be finding new homes.
This is what I bought as 'Starling'
This is 'Root Beer'
