I cannot thank you adequately, Betty, for the above cited comment which  
brought a wide grin to my face and more than a little laughter. I know you were  
not trying for humor, but my twisted mind went into high gear. If ever 
seedlings  were going to disappear they surely would be those with a pod parent named  
'Vanishing Act' and a pollen parent named 'Night Game.'  If there is a  
seedling from the cross worthy of introduction it surely should be named  
'Cheshire's Grin.' With apologies to Lewis Carroll and the Cheshire Cat's  "vanishing 
act."  Clarence M. in northern  VA.
