Chinese seed expedition


Hi all,

Thanks to the Seeds-L members who have subscribed to the Seed Collecting
Expedition to this remote and largely unexplored area of China.  As my

interest in subscribing but have not yet done so to finalise arrangements. 
I now have a more complete itinerary:

I am informed that we will be working as high as 11,000 feet.
As a result of a couple of substantial subscribers I will be making much
broader collections than the initial proposition of just Aroids.  You are
welcome to specify if you are only interested in Arisaema/Amorphophallus or
general material.  Expedition page is at:
