Well, Claire, if it's been a year or two since you saw a copy, you
might change your mind...it's improved quite a bit. Always has
something of regional interest around the country and more than one
good article...mine was the tag end one:) You can buy copies on some
newsstands...probably in relatively major cities.
I do not consider AHS on a par with RHS but I belong because it is
our only national hort. society and they have been improving steadily
over the years. Of course, I think AHS has a considerably smaller
member base than RHS. Seems last news from RHS was we'd gone well
over the 200,000 members we had a year or so ago...been a member of
RHS for about 20 years, too.
