Jim McKenney wrote, among many other things, "there are limitations on how we can express ourselves on this list, limitations which sometimes introduce their own problems." He may have been referring to italics but these limitations seem to crop up elsewhere as well, since I am not sure what he was trying to say here: "By the way, David, I’ve got loads of bulbs of Lilium majoense, L. catesbaei, L. iridollae, and L. spemperviviodes - all named in the spirit of your method – if you are interested in a trade. Funny, they all look a lot like the roots of Ranunculus ficaria". Firstly I am not sure to what method he is referring, and secondly I think I detect a hint of sarcasm. Never the less, Jim, I've been told not to "distribute" bulbs without "their history", (I wonder how far back "their history" would have to go before distribution would be OK?), and besides I am not interested in "lesser celandine". (yes I looked it up on the internet). Thanks anyway! (insert sincere smiley face here) David zone 6b
