This is 'Shades of Mango'--that incredible hybrid produced (I think) by David Salman at High Country Gardens. He sent it to me years ago, and I got a miserable orangy thing that disappointed (and wondered if he'd lost his mind). Then I got husky plants from Kelly Grummons at Timberline and planted them out. For year or two they thrived on my dry garden, and then started to go haywire--parts of them turning orange rather than mango shades, and finally reverting to generic and not terribly exciting pinifolius...
What a pity that the variable color form didn't persist: has anyone had it do so?
