Nope, not correct. Retiree is Neil G from Canada and IL LO N is Neil L from Illinois who posts here seldom but his user name is Neil as I recall.

I doubt I would have sent seeds to Neil G in Canada but when I first got the seeds from patty I could well have sent some to Neil L. I don't think I ever SSE listed it b'c by that time I would have seen the problems, but since Neil L and I have exchanged seeds, almost forever it seems, he may have gotten a large pink and felt it was stable. And he usually puts out two plants of each variety where as with the WV one I had many plants growing at several different locations as I said above, so could see the various kinds of fruits on different plants that indicated it wasn't stable.
