Your point is a good one, and I have talked about this in the past.
We do need a system , that rewards the hybridize for the efforts she/he has
put forth. Some Tc labs have in fact paid royalties on plants they
TC,and the purchasers of those plants (me included) do help "pay back" the
originator. I have been careful not to offer anything, I have obtained
with a patent, or a registered name, beyond the number I originally
purchased. Interesting isn't it that in almost every other field that
thrives on originality, the originator, is generally rewarded for the efforts
put forth. We don't question that with publishing, or music, or
inventions With plants, it seems that everyone believes the originator
ought to be willing to just share and be a nice guy. I wonder why that
is? Of course I have done that with the many other plants I have put on
the market, but I would like to make a little money on this one.
Thanks

HI Ran
I was at your website a little
while ago and I saw all the other's
plants you sell. What do you do about
royalties for other's plants you
sell and maybe other people could follow
your lead.
