Hello everyone:

I just joined and found a flood of PBS messages! I am
working at the USDA/UCDavis Cotton research station in
Shafter, CA. I have a post-doc appt there from cotton
Inc. to work with genetics. I still have family in
Champaign Illinois hoping to get a more permanent job
and higher paying job soon. I am into Hippeastrums
only for now, maybe some Clivia's and plants related
to Hipps. I have over 40 species in a greenhouse in
Illinois and over a dozen here in Wasco, CA where I
live. I divide my bulbs on occasion for distribution
to other IBS or PBS members and want to be a major
collector and breeder of Hipps someday, more so for
fame and generating interest in Hipps rather than
profit (but if it should happen, I won't complain). I
enjoy getting regular mail now as for some reason I
don't get the IBS bulb robin.

If there are any meetings especially involving bulb
auctions of Hipps. please announce them to me because
I was very frustrated to have missed the one in
October which the lack of mail from the IBS robin
definitely was a culprit.

I hope to meet more bulbophiles this time in CA
through PBS.

Sincerely,

James Frelichowski.
