The potato leaf has very different growth characteristics. Both plants are the same age.

Thanks for the update.
I have seen some very weird growth characteristics with some of these - especially with the potato leaf ones. I expect there will be lots that just don't pan out to anything worthwhile. It will be interesting to see what it becomes. I have had some that stayed small/weird like that then sent up an umbrella-like canopy of blossoms - see photo below.
I typically plant LOTS of seed and start culling as soon as I see something that I don't like. But then, I have only grown out F2s for 6 of over 50 different crosses I've made with the micro multifloras. I am growing out F1s from 50+ crosses with the micro-multifloras this summer. There is more than enough to keep lots of people busy.
Keep us posted.
