Re: Geroge Ball's talk at GWA Philly Flower Show

Excellent editorial??? I'll grant you that George's NY Times native plant rant is well-written. But his message is the horticultural equivalent of Bill O'Reilly's "war on Christmas" campaign -- a solution in search of a problem.
 
The editorial in question was in the Sunday Times, Sec.4, p13, for those interested.

Last Tuesday I was interviewed on Nellie Neal's radio show in Mississippi 
and one of my topics was trends and the Philadelphia Flower Show, so I 
picked up on some of the themes George Ball had mentioned.

Also I saw George's excellent editorial on native plants in the New York 
Times -- Saturday I think.
