G. robertsoniae and sustainable seed collecting

Hi Guys,

I understand what Alberto is saying, recently Chlidanthus boliviensis
was rediscovered, The guys have searched for years at past known locations
with no luck, About a month ago tho they had ran into a population and
collected a few seeds and distributed them to people at no cost. Many were
also started with hopes to reintroduce more plants into this area and I
feel a good amount of reassurance that this will be helpful to this species.

Out of the few seeds I got all have germinated and hopefully we can
produce seed for the future for distribution.

A good question tho, how do you know what a safe amount of seed may
be? Is it possible that this is actually harmful?

On a personal note, I have been engulfed in family issues tending to two
deaths and dealing with a horrible car wreck myself, I am finally
recovering and I'm sad I've missed out on the past two months or so of the
list...
