Everything that was on the list from Sharon and Tom and other folks
in the 'know' is sitting in a folder I created called (what else)
'Hybridizing' for easy reference. Those discussions are very valu-
able for those who consider themselves novice pollen daubers even
those of us who put the pollen in the wrong place when we started
(like me).
I also like a little human spin to our posts, after all we are not
machines...we just use them.:)
This is still the best list I am on and I belong to five mailing
lists......it started off being my favorite list and remains so.
Cheers,
Ellen - still have Japanese in bloom but the lilies are overshadowing
them, great iris season for us in '97 and the lilies are
just as wonderful - oops, heresy. :(
