Charles27gardner JJ Jackie needs a lot of heat and light to attain the pagoda shape and color, or it will look like a yellow with maybe a blush of red. JJ Taj Mahal is a performer no matter if your in a cool or hot area. Hope this helps....

I have no experience with either variety, just heard from several people that Taj Mahal is a notorious bud dropper in less than ideal conditions and requires a bit to get established.

Taj Mahal may drop the first season or 2, depending on how it fairs in your yard but typically after 2 seasons it can have a nice full inflo. Here are 2 different JJ's Taj Mahals, 1 growing in cool temps and the other in HOT temps. The 1 growing in cooler temps are just starting to bloom, buds opening.

Hotter temps:

such great info, thanks for sharing it.
