Barry,

Here's what I originally asked for.

except

However, in view of your last posting I guess that the vast majority of the
plants I want are withdrawn. A great shame since these are very rare
locations which to my knowledge are not grown in Europe. Oh well. Another
time maybe.

Let me know how much you need including postage and I'll get the money to
you.

The big minor from Okkefenokee is quite common here. If you ever want a
piece I can ship you some no problem.
