Diana Chapman of Telos Rare Bulbs is giving a program on Treasures of the Andes- Bulbs of South America. For those in the SF Bay area, there is an interesting program next Monday November 19th. Pre-meeting walk at 4PM in Strybing Arboretum. No host dinner at 5:30 nearby Park Chow Restaurant (1240 Ninth Ave). Meeting is at 7:15pm at San Francisco County Fair Building at 9th Ave. and Lincoln Way in San Francisco. See: http://www.calhortsociety.org/ current programs and November newsletter http://calhortsociety.org/Bulletins/nov_2007.pdf/ for more info. I'm sorry that Mary Sue and I will have to miss it as we need to attend a hearing in Fort Bragg and that makes a five-six hour round trip to SF's Golden Gate Park too difficult in the same day. I hope that some of the PBS members living nearby will have a chance to hear and meet with Diana. Bob Bob Rutemoeller brutem@mcn.org
