First, I'd like to thank those who wrote such nice things about our collection here at the UC Botanical Garden. I also want to use this experience to point out the value of this PBS forum. After posting a list of the many geophytes we are offering on our website, one of my PBS heroines, Mary Sue Ittner, very promptly and graciously sent me a list of spelling corrections for the errors made in my haste. I told you I wasn't an expert. We just had two nights of real frost (down to 26-28F), so I may soon have some new data on frost hardiness of our winter growers. -- Paul Licht, Director Univ.
