Thank you Howard. I will be more careful in the future.
I thought Steve Varner was still around and shouldn't
have lumped him with the other two. I didn't know where
any of them were from, now we know. Is he related to
Terry Varner of Ohio, the well-known median hybridizer?
>Are you still packing, Ellen?
LOL - no, ready to go to bed zzzzzzzzzzzzz
I wrote with a lot of hubris:
>I just bought every SIB that Jody Camille had in her stock.
Alas, not true - I bought any SIB that she had that I didn't
have. She has wonderful SIBS and Japanese irises.
Bye,
