This semp seems to be fairly widely sold - should we consider adding it to the database?

I contacted Canningperrenials, who sells it, and they replied they do not have any info on it.

I agree Patty I have seen it at several big box stores, which means it is in production. Personally I think it should be in the database, since we know it is out there. And it doesn't look like any other specific semp that I know of! Thanks for bringing this up Patty!
I tip my hat to you.

Patty, I just sent an email to Foremost®. They are the ones distributing this semp. I probably won't hear back from them until Monday or so.

Canningperrenials should have been able to tell you where they got there 'Dea' from? Probably Foremost®

Hi Mark welcome!! Hurray! I have several of your semps! So do you have any history (hybridizer, year introduced) for the semp Dea? Thanks in advance. I tip my hat to you.

Welcome Mark! Welcome! I don't know if you've been reading this forum for awhile - but if not, some of us only collect named and verified varieties, and if it's not in our database Lynn has to check its credentials before adding it. There are several good databases she checks and Dea isn't on any of them so any history is helpful.

Yes Mark, please do give us any information that you have on the origins of this semp. Can you tell us where you got your original stock? Any information on the hybridizer and date it was introduced?
