Pity there are less and less of these old nurseryman
the bad thing is they never wrote something down
all this information will be lost in a few years

Willem van Eden could tell stories about Crocus species , Iris
reticulata and Erythronium
but now he has alzheimer
so all his knowledge is gone

Roland, thanks so much. Sometimes when I ask these questions I don't really expect to get much in the way of a reply, this time we struck pay dirt. This is one of the things which makes the PBS forum so great!

The C 4 story is hilarious!
