All plants came from the same seed packet from bobby-seeds. Looking back I should have kept seeds from the multiflora fruit.

I have no idea about the genetics, if these could be two strains, etc.

I'm attaching two photos. The one with the fruit is the regular plant and the huge blossom truss on the left in the second photo is the suspected multiflora plant.
I can only refer back to

http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/wiki/Goldkrone , where Vladimir himself entered the information and the photo put up at the long thread where he was showing pictures.

All I ever saw were long Flat Trusses,not the typical one stalk hundreds of blossoms multifloras that I've grown.

But it's entirely possible that what you saw with that one plant was the result of a somatic mutation.It happens, but rarely, and here's another example.

The link to the original Rose Quartz is given on the same link.
