RE: was: S. sanguinea "Tricolor", now things that drive us crazy

Two months ago I received a subscription renewal (inside the mag, not
separately) to Horticulture for which I was paid up until July 06. I
took them up on it anyway and renewed to July 07. If you bought a 1 yr
subscription for $25, you got 2 gift subscriptions free. So I asked 2
friends if they wanted a 1 yr subscription for $8.33. Not a bad deal.
