Hi,

     Selfing of select, superior plants that are named cultivars is one =
very good way of possibly creating another superior plant. The parental =
name cannot be used on the seedlings derived from this method, but the =
opportunity might exist to name one of them ourselves. Orchid growers =
do it all the time. Cloning of select plants is a wonderful way to =
share the wealth. Selfing or sibbing is an exciting way to improve on =
what mother nature has given us. Its fun to see what develops.=20

                                            Sincerely

                                                 Jim Farrelly
