Dear All;
	Before mentioning any favorites, I'd like to start a whole 
hearted round of cheers to Mary Sue for marshalling the efforts to 
keep TOW going. I can very much sympathize with the difficulty of 
keeping topics, introducers and introduction in line. Takes a whip, a 
chair and continuous begging. I hope we can still see an occasional 
spontaneous TOW as the spirit moves members.

	THANKS A TON, Mary Sue. 3 Cheers.

Now -
	No one has yet mentioned Anemone blanda 'White Splendor'. 
This is the major harbinger of spring for here. I have planted sheets 
of this across a sloped area of the garden that meets the afternoon 
sun.
	Also early is Crocus sieberi 'Bowles White'

	Wish we had some better white Iris reticulatas to look 
forward to. the cv 'Natasha' is a weak grower and poor blooming.

	Among Narcissus, I like the all white 'Stainless' and the 
contrast of 'Raspberry Rose' rich pink and white is a standout.

	Best	Jim W.
