FYI, Craig, I called the number you have for the Byles nursery yesterday
to ask for a catalog and to my surprise reached Mr. Hughes at his home. 
He says Byles has moved the nursery to Olympia and did not have the
number.  He also said he might start another nursery himself someday,
but not right now.  So, does anyone have a more current number or
address for Byles Nursery in Olympia?  Thanks, Beth Metty, Munith MI
