WGI November Update
WGI ONLINE Journal, Volume 2 Number 4 – (http://www.watergardenersinternational.org/journal/2-4/cover.html) is now open for your viewing pleasure!
Our cover story is about the breathtaking lotus collection of Xi'an Botanical Garden in China. This is the most extensive article/gallery of lotus cultivars from China ever published on the Internet. We thank author and photographer Li Shujuan for this outstanding contribution!
How's "The Princess and Dr. Ding-a-Ling" for a catchy title? Or "Cobras Found in Oregon"? Read these and many other fun and informative articles in this issue! If you've been holding your breath for reports from the IWGS Symposium in Thailand and the subsequent lotus tour of China, you'll find them in 2.4 with more coming soon.
In the works is the next installment in Joel Police's excellent series for beginning water gardeners -- http://www.watergardenersinternational.org/beginners/main.html as well as several biographies, new images from a leading waterlily hybridizer, and a terrific "package" of details and profiles from Duke Gardens. Look for these to be announced as they go up -- http://www.victoria-adventure.org/recent_additions.html
Many of us have watched Lily Summers grow up on a Victoria pad -- http://www.victoria-adventure.org/more_than_links/joe_lily_gallery_1.html She has a baby brother! We want to know where Joe, Tonya and Lily plan to take Charles Edward Joseph's official portraits!
