orange chojubai

[dick benbow]

almost has a pink cast to it. Chojubai has been noted to come in red or white ( the white has a strong yellowish tone) this is a new sport from a nursery in california.

thanks Chris for helping me with posting a picture. The lower pixel setting seemd to compensate for the previous effort that kept failing.

I love this color! Is it a new cultivar?

It's a new sport from the red. stabilized and now getting out as available.

I have seen some chojubai leaves that have a white outside edge trim but don't know if that has been stabilized and available. the nursery that stabilized the orange is in california but won't ship to retail customers. So I have a friend within driving distance of their location that i have buy a few, pack and ship them up to me.

I'm just a sucker for anything chojubai...here's a close up of the new orange
