"Opendoors"

From: Timothy Chapman <chapman at premier.net> on 1997.01.20 at 16:44:33(188) Someone mentioned the japanese magazine as "Opendoors" this name has been used a lot, but "opendoors" is the name of an online service owned by the magazine publisher. I think someone started calling the magazine this because it is the only english word on the inside cover! The name of the magazine is the Asashi Weekly Encyclopedia: "World of Plants" The plant series is almost over, and apparently most if not all families were covered. I've just ordered the issues on gingers&calathea and Heliconia. I think there are around 150 issues, or something like that.

One of the speakers at the forthcoming Winter Study Weekend of the North American Rock Garden Society in Ashland, Oregon, is John Erwin who has been working for this magazine. He is known as "The Siskiyou Photographer", and has been photographing native plants for the last ten years. (Information from the WSW brochure)
