Greetings           Botaniphiles,       The last few weeks have
finally seen a welcome mellowing of high temperatures here as the
season turns towards autumn. The summer has been harsh, with periodic
heat spikes that disrupted much of our propagation work. Very few
plants appreciate the extremes and we've even seen species damaged
that had otherwise weathered the vicissitudes of the past decade.
Still, we're adapting and have inched forward with nursery
renovations. The Specimen Plant List is now updated for September. To
celebrate the Autumnal Equinox, we're offering significant discounts
on dozens of select specimens and some books through the end of the
month [sale ends after September 30th].

Specimen Plant List. _Before_ mailing payment, please email your order
