I agree Ina, I thought this site was to share knowledge, experience & discussion not just plants & photographs. Please someone tell me if i have misunderstood what the PBS site is for ? I wouldn't want to be the one to spoil a private club ! I joined because i was told how lovely & helpful everyone is. PBS offers potentially many hundreds of years of collective knowledge within members. I offered no wrong or wright explanation in the first place, so i don't understand why i would be accused of spreading misinformation. As i explained in the first place, i have no experience with variegated clivia , i only offered an experience i had in life, some "possible" answers & what i thought would be a cool experiment to try. Most members seem happy to share their knowledge to help others enjoy a greater understanding, we are not all scientists or scholars, though we all deserve the right to strive, to learn & share our experiences too. O what a joy it must be to the people who are always wright : -) Steven On Mon, Aug 29, 2011 at 3:39 PM, Ina Crossley <klazina1@gmail.com> wrote: > Actually, yes for the knowledgeable ones, Google would be fine, but I > have found the botanic discussion enlightening.
