I've got a magic window!
True cultivars are propagated by cuttings of the original plant so that the specific traits of the cultivar are not lost. 'Hummer's Giant' is a registered cultivar.Can you elaborate on this? How does that work, is it a hit or miss kind of thing?
Growing from seed will not retain the characteristics of the cultivar. Which is why they are identified with F1. F1 meaning the plant is a seed grown and not a true cultivar.
