Visiting plant people in other countries (Argentina)

Dear Mariano,
I was thrilled when in Minas Gerais in April to find a single plant of what was probably Hippaestrum glaucescens in a paddock. I was in Montevideo also for a pretour of a plant conference on palms and cycads and can't wait to revisit South America so hopefully will be able to catch up with some bulb people next time. Of course any visitors to Queensland would find a warm welcome.

THANKS Lee (Poulsen) and James (Frelichowski) for your nice words!.
Of course it would be a pleasure for me to meet any of the
members who takes part of this fascinating mailing list, when
coming to Argentina. Discussions on plants, among an endless
list of things, with a hot chocolate (we are in winter here
now), some argentinean “Alfajores” and one of our best “Dulce de
Leche”, would be part of another unforgettable meeting in Buenos
Aires.
Although I am not very well known in this Forum and have posted
just a couple of messages, I have been reading every single
topic of the PBS mailing list for some years now. Of course I
wrote lately concerning H. arboricolum, because Hippeastrum is
one of my favorite bulbous genus within Amarilidaceae and the
one, among others, I grow and study in my small greenhouse in
Buenos Aires. Taking this into account, any questions concerning
Hippeastrum will be willingly welcomed here, or by private
messages to my Yahoo e-mail.
My warmest greetings from a freezing winter night in B.A!
Take care, Mariano Saviello
