Every garden is a test garden.  The problem is obtaining the information 
from everyone to make an intelligent decision.  Again, I say this list is 
a good start for passing information of this nature around.  The FA 
postings are a good indicator.  There seems to be only a couple of areas 
that can grow FA without problems.  I for one would like to see what 
happens over the next 5 years, and in gardens that are not 'hyped' like 
Schreiners. (Please no slams from west coast gardeners about Schreiners.) 
An excellent test is how things grow for Mr. and Mrs. Dirt-Gardener, not 
the Big Commercial gardens.
