In the USA I believe it would be due to the influence of a Mr. Murphy......
He wrote several laws on such principles:

1. Your favorite plant always dies first.
2. The ugly plants always grow best & shade the good plants, thus killing
them.
3. Weed seed blows in to the pots that contain rare seed - thus making you
think
you have rare plants.

Anyone have any others to add to this list?

Hey Perry - I will bring a cutting and give it to you at the ICPS
convention. Drop me a line Wed. the 14th and remind me!

Take care & keep on growing,

Thomas K. Hayes
