That's exactly what I mean and at GW Minnie said she was going to give them the other parent, but two facts.

The original TT owned by Wayne Hilton was a seed site and he had to subcontract out to get the F1 constructed.

But at about the same time Jung's bought out TT from Hilton as well as Shumways, Vt Seed and all the rest.

I would assume that the Big Zac F1 that Jung's is selling is the correct one but that's just an assumption. If you call to find out you'll probably get nowhere b'c most there wouldn't know what you were talking about.

If it really is crucial for you know you might try PMing Jungseed, I think that's her user name here and Ruth works at Jung's/

Sometimes there's an advantage to being older when it comes to some of the backstory info on some varieties.
