We wish we could put all our plants into our catalog, but this is impossible 

due to lack of space. We are continually receiving new plants, many of 
sterling worth, others of interest to the collectors of certain groups or genera. 
After we receive a plant it must be tested and propagated and oftentimes this 
is a lengthy process. We hope for the use of the collector to have supple- 
mentary lists of new, rare or slow to propagate items.
