Hi Jane, I apologize for not sufficiently cleaning the Stenomesson pearcei bulbs. The attached photo taken 2 days before mailing, shows me I did not do a good job. Until I referenced my photo I mistakenly recalled having sent clean bulbs. I have seen others wash bulbs with water but I do not because it worries me that may break dormancy. I promise to only send clean bulbs in future. My lame excuse is Albert did offer to "clean them up further". In retrospect, I this kind of extra service may have contributed to the work overload. More valuable than a thank you note would be if next time I send material not requiring extra work. Gastil -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
