With this in mind, I assume you or some one with ICPS will send
out a memo detailing the protocal for registering a plant name? Something
published in CPN I think would be best, but also up here and maybe on the
FAQ for those that do not recieve CPN. I hope it will be written in
simple terms.

As it happens I have at least three names I would like to
register. The plants are all at least 3-4 years old and getting quite
large now. I can sacrifice one of each for a holotype, yes I want to
register the entire seedling lot in Latin. I can also photograph the
plants. Where do I send the holotype? What do I actually do with it to
prepare it? In other words, step by step, I have plants that need thier
names registered, what do I do please?
Thanks
Andrew
