Boy, I'm glad too. The first thing I worried about when I read that was
that plot of earth of theirs which they say has been *continuously farmed
for 3000 years.* Whew! (Anyone have trouble imagining any agribusiness plot
of land on earth still in production 2950 or so years from now?)

Now, Diana, tell me about this Burpee / GE / corporate giant thing you
mentioned, please.

where all those baby azaleas she planted last year are (finally!) about to
pop, and who wants a gazillion more -- and is seriously pondering the
question: IS there such a thing as *too many* azaleas? :-)   And who wishes
she could muster the same enthusiasm for veggies as she has for flowers.
