This is just a goodbye note to everyone. I leave for Japan on
April 2, but will be turning off my e-mail account on April 1. Since many
of you do not see your e-mail during the weekend, I decided to say
goodbye now. Hopefully I'll have e-mail in Japan and will soon be joining
you all again in the near future. Thanks to everyone for the great time I
had on this list this past year! Thanks especially to my European friends
who made my passage through that continent so special. That extends to my
USA, NZ, and aussie friends too! Keep up the good work and don't forget
that I'm leaving a "disciple" behind who has seeds of many native
Brazilian CPs for trade. Here's his address again:
Fabio Pinheiro
Rua Brasileiro de Campo 108
Jardim Marina 03560-160
Sao Paulo, S.P.
BRAZIL
We have seeds of many interesting CPs such as D.montana,
D.graminifolia, D.villosa, D.communis, U.longifolia "multiflowered
scape"(including the albino form of this plant), the giant G.uncinata,
and for the first we have a good quantity of G.aurea, the species with
the largest flowers and most numerous-leaved rosettes in the genus (at
least in Brazil!). We are still on the lookout for bits and pieces of
everything. We are especialy interested in Drosera from Venezuela as well
as D.brevifolia and D.capillaris. Yes, that's what you read: D.brevifolia
and D.capillaris. We NEED these 2 species to compare with their Brazilian
counterparts.
So once again best wishes to all, happy growing, and thanks for
everything!!!!!
BYE!!
