Yes, I'll get some in over the week end. I'll take several more pics in the morning and send you both some in tree mail for review first; then we'll decide which ones go in. The flowers of this plant never were deformed last summer--only a slightly lower bud count than usual.

I do have a photo of color breaking in a Maywood taken last year during a three week 95 to 101 F heat wave. No outward symptoms of tulip color breaking virus, however. I'll edit that picture 'in' here as soon as I find it. Maybe I should consider it as a suspecious player in the group/problem, etc. but for now its just on my watch list. Lets see what you think.

First photo shows a normal Maywood, second and third show the color breaking. All three pics are 'lighter' than reality. Looks like two plants will have to be pulled. Photos edited in post 05/05/12
