good to know I will try to look up both, Anil and Gargji's links but I like Pankaj's choice and idea and use Anil's link
on a personal note though, i think botanists have the luxury of such personal whims by bosses of one or two gardens cancer scientists on the other hand did not their classification could not be on a ie ONE boss's idea whim had no place, though i have witnessed some strong egos among caner guys but a consensus was always reached before end of the workshop days or patients would die because protocols were developed on a proper diagnosis and classification scheme i realize that to be fair to the botanists we must/i must acknowledge that plants hybridize and evolve at a far greater rate and every gardener or breeder of plants names a plant at his or her desire still there has to be a mechanism to reach consensus i am still a student and love it Usha di =========== On Sun, May 5, 2019 at 6:36 AM Pankaj Kumar <sahanipan...@gmail.com> wrote: > Kew has lot of free ideas.
