Re: Re: Lavender

Thanks, John, for the remarks about POEM OF ECSTASY.

Has there been any progress made since the mid-70's on identifying cause of
and/or treatment for pineappling?

As I understand it, one of the causal factors is climate--I've lived too far
north to see much of it.

The apical meristem seems to lose its organization in long continued heat or
high soil temperatures, and I have seen a few relatively minor expressions of
what I assume to be the same disorder.  I think I remember someone saying a
treatment that has had success is to slice off the growing terminal, letting
unaffected side increases (if any)  pick up the growth.  They could be or
would be normal.

Am I remembering something there accurately or just imagining it?

The last I remember reading about the subject (I've skipped the discussion in
TWOI so far) was that no consistent pathogens have been found.  The cause
remained a mystery
