Dear Sharon: Point weel taken about the aphids! Still, there is variation
in my garden between TBs as to which ones the aphids perform. I used to
notice the same preferences in regard to borers. I believe the late Dr.
Charles Nearpass was doing some study of this (borer preference).
My sender was somehow turned off, but I gave it some neames of Violet
Miracle derivatives. Check List l988 to l992 has a lot from Monty Byers,
and there is MATRIX from Earl Hall, and SUKY, V> Music etc from Clarence
Mahan.
