Maggi - having just joined up here at the forum - I can certainly vouch for the wonderful resource that is continuously being built on. Lots of knowledgeable people and plenty who have made me most welcome - despite all my newbie questions
I believe that twitter and facebook have their uses for all sorts of things but they can never provide the sort of resource that builds here in the form. ANYONE can see these pages, no need for any registration, fully searchable, a cast of thousands, with access to some of the greatest plant experts in the world and the chance to see and discuss just about any plant. The chance to add to an evergrowing solid resource is unbeatable from where I stand !Look at this thread - it's attracted wearing on for 1490 readers already - and if folk do register so they can post too, there are no adverts - just a huge collection of plant lovers.
Mark Smyth reported on micropropagation trials at a university (I think) but I don't know if those ever came to anything. I presume Thomson and Morgan will attempt something of the sort with their 'Elizabeth Harrison'.
No worries Martin, I didn't imagine you were suggesting such a thing.
Does anyone out there have any news on that front? Maybe I should start a new thread on the subject to try to garner information on who, if anyone, is currently working on microprop for galanthus, and what success may or may not be being achieved.
