The poles are already there.  We are a bit behind here the rest of the world.  Much of our  utility  infrastructure is above our heads.

Newer communities have buried them but my area was first built in the later 1800's so utility poles are the fashion.

We have a nearby town that have installed free Wifi in their down town.  Just put the transmitters on already existing poles

We will be sending out reminder post cards regarding membership renewal.

You can save the Society some funds and me some time by renewing prior to mid-Feburary when I generally start this process.

Due are $20.00 for US members and $25.00 for overseas and Canada, Mexico.

Thanks for all the years of support.

Yes, I gang seeded them and this is two years after germination.  Seeds from a PBS distribution.

I'll probably re-pot and send some to the SX

General Discussion / Habranthus pedunculosus
January 14, 2023, 12:13:59 PM
 A member living in Louisiana has written to me looking for Habranthus pedunculosus (syn. Habranthus juncifolius) which he obtained originally from Thad Howard years ago.  He lost most of his plants in a freeze and is looking to get another to produce some seed.

Anyone with this plant willing to share seeds or bulbs  please let me know.

I think that these oils will hopefully disappear as the tragedy of oil palm cultivation become more well known.
