Re. GA100S02, I forgot to ask this in the previous post George - What's the C,A,B,L box for?
Cheers
Trevor
ideasguy:
Enter a few characters of text in the Collector/Author field.
Then Enter C, A, B or L into the CABL field. The program will tell you the meaning.
Not used a lot, I'm sure, but its there for the botanists and the purists :)
Trevor Ellis:
Ok - all is clear George. Strangely enough, I'd never entered anything in the collector author box until this morning when I put a couple of breeders' names in the box. Did you intend 'Author' as synonymous with breeder?
ideasguy:
No Trevor, but you can if you wish ;D
The Author is usually a botanist who studied that plant.
The Breeder name isnt considered as part of the plant name and should go in the Plant Data field in GA100S36
A plant introduced by a collector is different and is part of the plant name (hence the CABL stuff :))
Trevor Ellis:
That all makes sense George - thanks for the info.
Cheers,
Trevor
PS Nice to 'hear' from you again too.
