I was suprised to receive two rather pricy spurias as free gifts when I
ordered 6 of the cheapest spurias in the catalogue. These two were new
introductions by a new hybridiser, and I wonder if giving them out free
is a means of distributing them so that people get to know what this new
hybridiser is producing.
BTW, I wonder if our friend who is trying to keep cats out of her garden
is finding this thread 'CAT-free plants" rather frustrating. :)
