Chick, As usual your sense of humor is beyond compare. For years I have
offered to try some of the northern developed plants to check how they react
to the south. I am still learning the old fashion way.
I am afraid that you guys missed the point of what I am trying to say and
that is some people need guide lines and even ask for them. I get a lot of
questions. One example from a person that really wanted to do it right. He
or she related that this lovely clump in the garden just must be registered
but how was it to be described. It seems the clump had never been divided
and developed. At the time I was asked for help the clump contained a solid
plant, a center variegated plant, a streaked plant and a border plant.
Believe me a lot of new comers do need and want some help. This person
needed to be told that the clump contained at least four plants and could
not be described as one.

I still say you guys are coming up with unworkable solutions to a problem
that
doesn't exist.
Mary, you've probably registered as many plants as anyone in the last few
years. Do you want someone else deciding which of your plants is
acceptable?
How about sending me one good size clump of each of your new plants before
you
register it and I'll let you know what I think? If it doesn't meet my
standards
you probably shouldn't let anyone else have it. No charge, I do these things
out of the goodness of my heart.
