Happy holidays to you too, Mary.
Could you or anyone else enlighten me about "the split"? I've only been
following this group for months, not years. I would guess that this
group was split from rec.gardens? Is that right? When did it happen?

Hi Steve,

I'd have to look up the date but yes, originally there was one enormous
group rec.gardens. After the requisite vote, it was split into the
subcategories we have now. Actually, there was probably more than one
vote. I remember that originally there was a lot of opposition to the
split and the first few votes probably failed.

On another note, I'm relieved that the busy part of the holiday is over
and I can get to ordering my seeds. :-)
