Re: Flight of Butterflies


I have not seen the entry in the Siberian checklist
but I do not know where the 40 chromosome part would
have come from. I don't believe Jean ever thought of
it as a Hybrid and not a pure species either and it
originated with her. I wonder if another plant has
gotton mixed with this in Roy's Garden since I can't
imagine he would add that comment looking at the plant
I used to have.
