Dear PBS members and friends, The PBS board over the last few months approved a new set of PBS promotional materials to attract new members. I just received a small supply of really nice full color book marks, each featuring a different flowering bulb and boasting of PBS activities from this list to membership and more. Arnold Trachenberg, our Treasurer, will insert them into packets of info sent to new members and eventually we hope to include one in a copy of'The Bulb Garden', our quarterly newsletter. Nhu will have some for the attendees to the N. Cal get together schedule for later this month. We hope to get these out via other plant related meetings, regular members and other forums. If only a small percentage of people are introduced to the PBS through these attractive book marks they'll be well worth the production. If you'd like to one with your latest BX/Seed Ex request drop Dell a note and ask him to add one. Thanks to Jennifer Hildebrand and Arnold as prime movers on this effort. Best Jim W. -- Dr. James W.
