In conclusion... anyone here wanting to learn how to grow seed and/or wanting to learn how to get into hybridizing and/or wanting to find that particular 'Breeding Parent' they are seeking? and/or do any kind of hosta'cussin horse-trading they like/choose? -- can do so! ..by going to the following URL and simply asking for what they want?  A totally non-profit; unrestrictive (no rules?) and simply stated, a very NISE group....
