Mark, I will send you the propagules -- no problem. The cold conditions you're having in the mid-atlantic states right now should not be a problem as the package would be indoors and warm most of the time. The only concern is the flight -- I think all cross-country mail goes by air these days. The plants can certainly withstand a day or so of slightly below freezing, but how cold it gets in the stratosphere is something else. I'll insulate as best I can. It might take me a day or two -- I'll e-mail you when I take the package to the post office.

Mark, Where do you live? I could see if any of our plants f Neomarica caerulea (note spelling) have any propagules in the old inflorescences. I'll check on Saturday. We may even have one in a pot I could wash off and send to you. John C.
