This news just arrived from NARGS........
North American Rock Garden Society to get a New Editor..........which will be of particular interest to SRGC members and Saxifraga Society members, who will be pleased to hear this news of a well known personality....
In July 2010 Malcolm McGregor, former Editor of SRGC Journal "The Rock Garden" will take over from Jane McGary as the editor of the NARGS bulletin.
Anyone who knows Malcolm will realise that this can only be a most exciting prospect for the publication.
Congratulations to Malcolm on the new post and to NARGS for choosing such a prestigious successor to Jane.
NARGS has this intro to Malcolm:

and yes, I have already teased him about the rather gruff looking photo!
When Malcolm takes over, Jane will have been NARGS editor for about nine years,though I rather suspect that Jane will be just as busy for NARGS in other roles in the future, rather than just putting her feet up for a rest.
While I am on the subject of NARGS..... please do have a look at their website if you haven't been for a while... there are a great many great new features there..
