There was no room in The Bulb Garden you will soon be receiving (it's at the printer's) and I wanted to reminded you all of an important service the Pacific Bulb Society provides to academics and other qualified applicants for financial assistance in studying some aspect of bulbs.
 
Details are available at the above link. If you have questions, please contact me. PBS did not award any grants for fiscal year 2022, so the board hopes you will consider spreading this announcement around and if you have a project, please apply. Applicants must be members to receive these grants.
 
Also, a generous member has donated a sum to be used for microwave pollen studies of a specific kind. If you are interested, please contact me. Depending on the number of qualified applicants, there could be some additional funds available to supplement this donation.
 
Enjoy the holidays. As gardeners I do believe the Winter Solstice is our signal to look forward to the new year ahead.
 
Best regards,
 
Robin Hansen
President, PBS
