Lindsey ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Apache <apache@pacificbulbsociety.org> Date: Fri, Aug 28, 2026 at 3:36 AM Subject: PBS website contact:///Gladiolus/ aureus To: <humminggard@gmail.com> This is a message from the PBS website for sxmanager. Hi, I am a South African conservationist and author, based in Cape Town, who is launching a conservation project in the last known range of Gladiolus aureus, which now appears to be extinct in the wild. (We have surveyed the last known sites for the species over the last 3 years and found nothing.) I have a quick question for you: Do any of your U.S. members still have Gladiolus aureus in their collection? I look forward to hearing back from you.
