Thanks for the heads-up :-). From the web site, I wasn't really sure
whether she was talking about seeds or plants, and whether she shipped
outside the UK. Talk of phytosanitary certificates reminds me of our
(Ireland's) Jane Stanley -- OK, it's a silly train of thought, but she once
sent me a packet of cuttings and I noticed that where the Customs form
asked her to indicate contents, she had written "live plant material",
something I would not have dared to do :-). I must not have gotten enough
sleep last night to be free-associating like this. Anyway, whatever
happened to Jane? Her posts have been conspicuous by their absence for
quite a while now, and I have been wondering.
