Joseph, Thank you for the offer, but someone else looked at a copy of the book in her univ. library and told me the chapter is descriptive only to the section level, whereas what I was hoping for was species descriptions. I'm resigned to being able to identify firmly only the more distinctive species within sections, and to regarding the less distinctive ones more or less as continua within a section. This doesn't trouble me much because I'm not selling bulbs any more -- just enjoying the plants. As for sending seed to exchanges, I don't suppose I would misname them any worse than anyone else does, but I wish there were a consistent way of warning those who order seeds that Narcissus hybridizes madly in cultivation, especially in an extremely diverse collection such as I grow. We can do this in the PBS exchange, but I wonder how many people grow hybrids and then send the seed out under species names. I know I was guilty of that when I started out, but now I hesitate to donate seed in genera where hybridization is relatively frequent. best regards, Jane McGary At 10:33 AM 3/21/2013, you wrote: >Jane: > >If you can wait a couple of weeks for the information, I have already >ordered a discounted copy of the hardback edition of this book.
