No he just said they were GROSSLY MISNAMED. now misnamed is misnamed. what
is this grossly talke? also i didnt say a maple tree was a pumpkin. and he
says he got Lilian Ture else where and mine looks nothing like it.
So????MINE CAM FROM LILIAN TRUE HERSELF?!#$%^&@ why doesnt he go gripe to
elsewhere?  What reason would i have to misname all these plants? also he
asked for cultivars which in my opnion, having bought them and tried to
grow them are not anything new. so I told him as much, and asked him if he
would like substitutions and I sent him great stuff.  I do not sell
unstable cultivars. I do not send out plants with wanky attributions.

However, I would not under oath say I believe every one of my plants has an
absolutely correct name on it. for years we said singularis, now we say
fischeri. that sort of thing.

This also goes on in Bamboo-land as well. many new introductions with
uncertertain taxonomy, many cultivars which are so unstable...they are just
one-time aberrations. i don't fool with them.

and so. like i said about every 4 years this happens, and the bottom line
is always about money. and GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. i sent this man extra plants
galore.

enough ranting, i am FINE. the polka dots sound very stylish. that pinkish
Kirkii var pulchra would be nice to cross with pinguicula, eh?
