Is this a typo, or are you really that far ahead and know what the 2002
intros are? Can you order without the 2002 catalogs
in hand?
Schreiner's and Cooley's don't ordinarily list their current introductions' parentages until
nearly a year after they are introduced, which is definitely a set-
back to hybridizers.
One of the greatest things about the Keppel catalog is all of those
parentages and you don't need to go running for the R & I's to check
on the parentages in order to know what kind of luck you might have
with the new intro.
