If this was as serious as the quoted opinion makes out, where are the
strident complaints from the seed merchants - the Thompson & Morgans
of the UK and across Europe?
It would cost them a fortune to register every one of their varieties.
If they are not worried, should we be?


Good point. You would expect to hear something from them if it were the
case. Have they not been heard to make any comment at all?


We get our seeds from Jelitto, which is a German company. I'll ask Ray
if he knows of any particular worries that they have. And email to
will either come to me or get forwarded
to me by someone.
