Hi Bill, Have you ever thought about moving the First Look Meeting across the US at all? The reason I ask is cause I can't and probably will never be able to make a meeting where it's at now, so how can this part "awards" for hybridizing benefit me? Is it possible for me to ship plants to someone th...

And Mulch isn't what takes the nutrients to where there needed. Then again it's a hosta and I've seen some live with minimal of all. Throw a hosta on t...

Gardeners don't go out and turn the mulch so it takes a bit longer to decompose, unlike compost sites that are moving piles or turning piles on a weekly ...
