This is a natural form rather than a cultivar. It looks like we have at least 2 different varieties in our database, and I'm not sure any of them look like the correct plant. See the German site:

@valleylynn - what do you think?

Thank you Patty, it certainly does look like another incorrect semp in the U.S. Sad
@goldfinch4
What do you think Chris? How do yours compare with the German site? I don't have that one.

Gregs looks like it could be correct. Mine was a beauty! Oranges, yellows, and now a NOID Hilarious!

I will leave it up to each of your to delete your photos if they don't match what the correct Tokajense looks like. Sad

Good idea, in general, Lynn - but what if folks don't check in here anymore?

Mountain Crest has it as tectorum and Liste as marmoreum. Looks much more like a marmoreum to me.

I agree with Jo Ann, it definitely should look like a marmoreum, not a tectorum.

Looks like we need to clear all the photos out of this entry. Sad

Okay, I just made some changes to the entry. Also added a comment at the bottom of the page, under the photos.
Now to notify people that their photos are incorrect.
