Many (though by no means all) of the dues-paying members of the Pacific Bulb Society also subscribe to this list, so I'd like to mention that we now have significant clusters of members in several areas. I think they'd enjoy getting together for some activity, perhaps a garden tour or a cooperative slide show. Some areas with numerous members are Los Angeles, San Diego, the San Francisco Bay area, Portland, and Seattle. I'm not sure how close together the homes of eastern North American members are, but we can sort our membership list by Zip code now to find out. This list would be one place to start organizing group activities, so if you like the idea, you can post your thoughts about it here. I'd be glad to help set up a Portland activity.
