When  I send a rhizome off to convention, I willingly accept the risk

ground,  labels may be switched, even (horrors!) that I may dig and send 
the wrong  plant (i.e., one intended for compost that grew into the 
"keeper" clump  without my realizing it).


I'm apparently not communicating well. 
 
The risk of which I was speaking was the risk inherent in relying  upon 
information of unknown and possibly spurious reliability  about various convention 
guest cultivars, not your own, to make  decisions in your hybridizing program.
