Title: Do you have Herbertia, Volume 58?
Post by: cshunter on October 29, 2022, 12:11:41 PM
Hi, I am looking for somebody who has Volume 58 of Herbertia, published in the mid-2000s. At pages 141-144 is an article written by the late Thad Howard, an expert on Mexican Hymenocallis species. It is concerning Hymenocallis lehmillerii, and I am looking for a good description of this species. As some of you may be aware, there is no single reference to the Hymenocallis found south of the border, even though there are actually a greater number of Mexican species than American ones. This is also a follow up on my what I posted with pictures in "Mystery Bulbs" recently trying to confirm an uncertain ID of what I obtained as this species a couple of years ago.

If you have it, I would greatly appreciate somebody shooting me those 4 pages of the article. Thanks very much!

Charles

As a general question, @cshunter : are you aware of the personal message function and do you read yours?

General information you can get notifications of private messages on the forum by email, if they're turned on.

Martin - did you email him.

Perhaps not generally known that the forum has a system of private messages.

Of course the "fire and forget" enquiry does exist.

Charles Hunter is a member of the PBS list, I can't find any posts by him, but does get honorable mentions.

Email from my private account bounced back. I think it is  default for the @-Mention to generate one though. Or I might try my business address.

Martin - csh is a member of the PBS list, seemingly with no email problems. I emailed him earlier tonight, no bounce. I'll let you know if he replies.

Martin - I got a reply from csh, does not know about the forum operation, requests you email him... I have copied him your pm on here.

Slightly disconcerting conducting this conversation in public.
