Re: Ploidy Analysis -- If you want to check a plant

John, I think hosta pods would likely make a cake a bit...uh...well, let's just say I think Betty Crocker left that recipe off the box on purpose!

Although I'd love to make one of these meetings someday, I don't think this will be the one! The new garden and house are keeping me a bit too busy for a trip, at this point.

SO! someone will have to take crib notes and post to the list for those sorry souls among us who will not be attending.

For that matter, where is the group gathering? The 15th is my birthday,
maybe I can persuade someone to give me the trip as a birthday present!>>

C'mon over, Alttara. We'll bake you a birthcake cake of streaked seed pods.

The Hosta Hybridizer's Group (HHG) is holding their inaugural 'Hosta Science
Workshop' on August 16th in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The workshop starts at 10:00
AM and is being held at Washtenaw Community College.

Scheduled speakers include:
Stephen Zolock on polyploidy in daylilies and hostas;
Bill Zumbar on stabilizing sectoral chimeras; and
Jim Wilkins on using the Punnett square: which hosta traits are dominant.

After Jim's talk, the group will discuss plans for a collaborative study of
hosta trait dominance.

All are welcome to attend, but non-HHG individuals should RSVP Ed Elslager so
he can plan accordingly. Email me directly for Ed's phone number (the man
refuses to use email!).
