Miss Daisyi, As a retired educator here, I have worked with some of the DOE and Feds on their Superfund
sites locally and I'm sorry to say what we do here wouldn't classify as one!! Even the county has tested
the local stormwater and found nothing to speak of due to how things are used and disposed per their
lax regulations. I know more about the regulations then most citizens of this area and when the County
subs being told by the state that they have to so something and they refuse there are groups that support
the mandates, we make them comply! If not their goes their funding. I am a very vocal Community Activist
that changes their regulations as you put it. I am also the lady that JT has posted about in the Brugmansia
forum with my work with crossing Brugmansia X Datura and Datura X Brugmansia as I was give a copy of
the 1940s studies that was done by a University group. But my selections of tissue culture plants which is
supposed to be a better plant than just a common one will not be taken seriously by the society.
PlantMatt, In my crosses of the Brugmansia X Datura or Datura X Brugmansia I have been able to produce
albino of which they will not live due to the lack of green for those that are not educated to what is needed to
survive. I have gotten some albinos to grow and flower and seedpods. But again it's frond upon and there
is no money in them per the experts, a total waste of time. I currently have this one in the greenhouse just
watching and learning from it.
Here is another photo of an albino sport that was allowed
to bloom and go to seed. It produced all abino seedlings that
we watch slowly die.
But we have cross variegated plants and solids to products
some of our crosses that have been registered. I test plants
for other hybridizers besides my own.
