Narrative
This sample was obtained from I. O?Neal through the Seed Saver?s Exchange Network. He obtained from another individual in his local area. Dr. Farnham increased the population in 1995 using approximately 20-30 plants for intermating. Seed sent to Geneva is from that increase. The original claims for ?Mesic Zero? was that it was a variety that survived below zero temperatures (presumably 0 degrees F) one winter. This sample has been in cold storage at the U.S. Vegetable Laboratory and had good germination as of fall 2003.
