	Dear Planters,				July 22, 1998

	I grow a hybrid of Dooryanthes (sp.!) palmeri x excelsa on my
`	Berkeley drought slope.  It survived 19F in 1990 with no difficulty
	but I did lose at lease three spp. of Beschorneria, including
	yuccoides.

	Doryanthes are hardier and much larger than any beschornerias,
`	far more grandiose.  Mark's memory of the name suggests a
	Xanthorheoea but the description sure don't fit!
