Hey Kathy,
Good idea. I have a couple MDBs still sending up stalks. It would be
useful to compare apples to apples, then we could have a truely accurate
picture. Even so every year weather would play a big part in it, we are two
weeks behind peak bloom this year, probably because of the very cold and
late spring. I am game for it.
Mike
