You had better hurry up before the dollar totally tanks. Then it will cost you much more.

Hello--forgive my ignorance---what is the "Taylor" reference? Curiously, Mike

 

[rattler]

The Genus Utricularia by Peter Taylor, its the most recent and complete referance on Utrics, last updated in 1994 i believe. a must have for any Utric nut but a bit expencive and basically only availible from the Kew Gardens in England

[rattler]

[SunPitcher]

Thanks Rattler & Sunpitcher! Just checked the Kew Link--wow, sounds like quite the tome. Happy Trails, Mike
