Here is a picture of magnifica WMZ i received as a cutting. It hasn't taken yet, and so the leaves are looking a little dessicated. Very fuzzy, with a really great texture. The leaves seem to be larger than standard magnifica leaves, but my memory may be faulty as I haven't grown straight magnifica for a while. Matt and I were discussing this- I thought I would post here for everyone to see. This variety is said to have a "more pleasant (nutmeg) fragrance" than straight magnifica, by Ted Green. I was wondering if this could explain the differing experience of Swedish growers, who say their clones smell like horse s***. Maybe the two (at least) clones of this species vary in their interpretation. I know some folks love and others hate the smell of plain magnifica, some say ambrosial, and others cloying. Maybe WMZ is nutmeg and stable both? Has anyone grown both of these clones?
