From: "Carla Kostelac" <Carla.Kostelac at mobot.org> on 2010.06.23 at 19:28:14(21138) Hello, IAS Members, If you have not already received your electronic June IAS Newsletter (Issue 2 for 2010) via email, you should be receiving it very soon. There are many interesting articles in this issue including a very complete report on the 2nd MidAmerica IAS Chapter Meeting that was held in April at the Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis. Also of note, aroid botanist, Simon Mayo, has recently retired from Kew Gardens. In A Closer Look, you will be introduced to three up and coming aroiders from different countries. We are all saddened to learn of the death of aroider, Joe Wright, and John Banta pays tribute to him in this issue. Thanks to everyone that contributed to the June Newsletter and for those folks behind the scenes. I am encouraging all of you to consider submitting something for the IAS Newsletter. You can write about growing plants, trips that you have taken and the aroids that you observed, tips that you want to share about how you manage your plants, aroid recipes, books that you have run across that deal with aroids–the possibilities are endless. Please think about what you would like to share with your fellow aroid enthusiasts, including your spectacular and diverse aroid color photos. This is your forum and your words and contributions are most welcome and genuinely needed. Submissions for the August IAS Newsletter would need to be received by July 15. I really hope to hear from you soon. Many thanks and best wishes, Carla Kostelac HTML +More IAS Newsletter Editor Carla V.

From: "Carla Kostelac" <Carla.Kostelac at mobot.org> on 2011.06.15 at 14:39:59(22109) Hello, IAS Members, Thanks to the beautiful Caladium photos and article from LariAnn Garner as well as Tom Croat’s photo-studded field log to the Guianas, the June IAS Newsletter is colorful indeed! You may have already received it in your email. Lester Kallus has written a wonderful article about packing plants, complete with photos illustrating each step. This will be helpful when you want to pack up the plants that you purchase at the IAS Show in Miami (September 17-18, 2011)! Lester hopes to have a packing table at the Show for this purpose which is a fantastic idea. There are also other interesting articles and photos in the Newsletter so please check them out. Many thanks to everyone that contributed to this issue and also those behind the scenes whose work made this possible. If you missed contributing to this issue, please consider submitting an article to the August IAS Newsletter. The deadline for that issue will be July 15 so there is plenty of time to write an article, collect some photos and let fellow aroiders know your growing tips and interests or tell them about some exciting places that you have visited. I hope to hear from you in the next several weeks. Please remember that your contributions are what make the IAS Newsletter.
