Thanks Dave! I found an article about the breeder of Hill's Kiev, but
unfortunately he passed away so can't contact him to see what he used
to develop the line. We can't bring non-resistant varieties into
Ohio, so I can't experiment (I think the pine forest loggers across
the road would be annoyed with me too!)
