In this case the problem is exacerbated by the difficult nature of the
plants
themselves. Not everyone, however well intentioned, can grow the arilbreds
and they are doubly vulnerable to extinction because of this. <
And complicated by the differing growth habits of the original C. G. White
amphidiploids and their more modern descendants involving outcrosses.
People accustomed to the more open growth habits of things like ESTHER, THE
QUEEN and her descendants tend not to dig and divide the C.G. Whites as
often as they need to avoid becoming suicidal. Or they don't even realize
that the older one has gone to that great garden in the sky and an
interloper has grown into its place.
