Re: Definition of Minimum Acceptable Commercial Division

All of Isabelle Preston's siberians are exceptional performers and stand 
up well to time.  Of course, most of her work was done a couple of miles 
west of me.

As a purchaser, I order current year (or C-Yr+1) introductions.  I have 
received various numbers of rhizomes from different gardens.  Most tend 
to be sizeable clumps.  The spring deliveries are smaller than the fall 
deliveries by about a third.

I wouldn't object to receiving four single rhizomes, depending on the 
price.  I would likely have a problem paying 50 USD.

However, I liked the story of Dana Borglum sending 'Lake Keuka' to 
Oregon for the AIS convention.  He read the rules quite literally - he 
send three single rhizomes, believing that the committee did not 
distinguish between TBs and siberians.  They performed magnificently, 
and the ultimate result of that decision will occur on May 17th, 2003.
