 <Last year, W. Atlee Burpee Co. acquired Heronswood Nursery.  Dan Hinkley
 stayed on as manager.  Now I read that Burpee has filed for Ch. 11
 protection in bankruptcy.  Does anyone know what this means for Heronswood?>

Bill, Dan is scheduled to be in Louisville on January 12, 2002, for a lecture 
sponsored by Botanica, Inc., a local non-profit horticutural group.  The 
information he sent us says that he manages Heronswood.  I tried to reach the 
person with whom he has been in contact, but didn't find her at home.  I will 
try later and if I learn anything different, will let you know.

In case anyone is interested, Dan's topic is "The Garden in Winter: Blossom, 
Foliage, Fruit and Bark".  Tickets are $7.00 and will be sold only at the 
door...no advance sales.  If anyone is interested in more information, please 
email me privately.
