This is an example of the scrambling of identities when emails on this  
forum are sent.  Unless the sender identifies themselves in their post, one  
has no way of knowing who sent the info/email.

Dear  Iris Hortnet friends: I do like this forum even though it is not used 
much. I  have initiated a new program called the Pollen Exchange. For more 
info check  out Pollen exchange in the general index of the Iris 
Encyclopedia or click  on   http://wiki.irises.org/bin/view/Main/InfoPollenExchange .  

My bloom season has barely begun for my MDBs, so I have collected  pollen 
from only a couple of Iris so far, but this exchange I hope will create  a 
number of opportunities for people to try crosses that would be difficult  
without saving their own pollen in some cases for more than a year.  

Since the SDBs were created by Paul Cook and Geddes Douglas exchanging  
pollen through the mail I can point to that notable success. I believe results  
maybe iffy but the amount invested is very low compared to buying and 
growing  many plants. The exchange will be advertised in the upcoming AIS e-news  
letter, News & Notes, and The Dwarf Iris society's new upcoming  
E-Newsletter 'Small Talk'. The Dwarf Society's Small Talk will be free to  anyone who 
sends me or Lyn Wilson their e-mail address. I hope anyone  interested in 
Dwarf Irises will subscribe.
