Cultivars of Dracunculus vulgaris
|
From: James Waddick jwaddick at kc.rr.com> on 2003.07.22 at 18:21:57(10423)
Dear Jim
With the possible exception of the hairy-spathed form Dracunculus vulgaris
is without much doubt one variable species - if you find that hard to
swallow.

Dear Pete;
No problem. I doubt this "taxonomy" myself. Just passing
along info in quotes. I am quite aware of natural variation patterns
-sometime quite extremes. But it does seem like there's enough
variety that someone could do some selecting and introduce cultivars
doesn't it?
Wilbert's D. vulgaris 'White Dragon,
Alan's 'Harlequin Dragon',
Your 'Hairy Dragon' etc. on a roll.
Best Jim

Hiya Jim
Well, that's certainly what I think needs to be encouraged - although of
course cultivars need to be validly & effectively published and thus can be
off-putting to folks, but, certainly, cultivars ar far preferable to the
supporting of a plethora of taxonomic varieties, forms, etc.
