Subject: 1) Drosera X Dionaea 2) UK CPS AGM 3) Drosera Homeopathy

1) I have heard an unsubstantiated rumour that Adrian Slack had a Dionaea X
Drosera hybrid. Can anyone confirm this? Does anyone know what the Drosera
parent was? Has anyone recreated it since?

2) I bumped into Alastair last week; apparently the Plant Sciences Laboratory
at Reading Uni has been booked on Saturday April 26th for the UK CPS AGM.

3) A local pharmacist currently has a homeopathy display. One of the plastic
containers is labelled Drosera - does anyone know what Drosera is supposed
to cure, and what part of the plant is used?
Another container was labelled Belladonna - presumably that is to cure mother
in laws!
