I like them so I hope will be good in another gardens too. If I omit clone number 1 what is very nice and useful plant, I am satisfied with clones 5, 8 and 4.Mr.Bean wrote: Looks like a need to take a closer look at 2 and 10, as well.
Number 5 is the smallest one, and the most hardy from all clones i have.
Number 8 is middle sized clone with columnar habit.
Number 4 is overhanging, but when regurarly trimmed, looks nice.
Clones 3, 6, 7 and 11 fail. Less hardy and vigorous in comparation with above mentioned. 11 is a sick plant. A top part of the new stems often died in the first year.
