Mediterranean Symposia


Dear Mr.Turland and Medit-Planters,
 
Your Medit Plants e-mail of October 4th made me dream about having been at the symposium too - and surprised that someone else was impressed (to say the least) with those horrible disgusting banana slugs in the redwood forests.
 
I was intriqued by the FLORA OF CHINA PROJECT as part of your address.  Have you at the Missouri Botanical Garden any record at all of anyone ever seeing 'Mutabilis' (Rosa chinensis 'Mutabilis') in the wild in China?  I have been able to trace it as far back as Isola Madre and then the Bourbon Isle (Reunion), but have located no earlier traces.  It MUST have originate in China...
 
Any comments or help would be much appreciated.
 
Best wishes,
Helene Pizzi
