Subject: Passiflora Society: where?

I THINK I saw a notice - a few weeks ago - of a newly formed Society
devoted to the passion flowers. Could someone please tell me whom I can
contact to join?

Thank you -

Ed & Michael,

Passiflora Society International is neither new or a "scam" (wonderful
things those spell checkers...). P.S.I. was formed in 1990 and currently
has more than 300 members. There have been some problems in the past,
particularly where the newsletter is concerned, but I can assure you that
these problems are now past history (I'm the newsletter editor). Vol. 6(1)
was sent to members in early June and Vol. 6(2) is now at the printers and
should be issued by mid-July. Vol. 6(3) will come out, on schedule, in
September.

Michael - How long ago did you join? If you only joined 3 or 4 weeks ago
(which I suspect) then why are you complaining (especially publically)? If
it's been longer than 2 months then please e-mail me and we'll see about
fixing it since you should have received Vol. 6(1) of the newsletter. You
DO have my e-mail address I know, so a private query would have been more
suitable - dissing an organization, in public, to an interested prospective
member is bad form, to say the least.

Ed - If you're still interested <g>, then please contact me at
[email-masked] and I'll set you up with the membership info.
Please ignore the preceding diatribe...

You saw that allright. I joined by writing a 15.00 check.....never
heard from them. Another SCAM!

Michael,

Quit dissing the society! It is NOT a scam, I'm quite willing to help set
things right but please stop telling everyone that this is a scam. Will you
be as quick on the old keys to issue a public apology when you find out
that P.S.I. is for real? I think not.

Cease and desist, please...

The person you could contact to tell you how to join is Christian 
Feuillet.  He does research on the Passifloraceae and I believe is 
involved with A passiflora society.  His email address is:

I am looking for informations about the medicinal plant Pimpinella anisum
(especially about growth conditions, perhaps methods of culturing, and plant composition). If there is anybody, who can help me, please answer by e-mail.
Thanks

Thanks for trying to help Cynthia but Christian's most recent e-mail
address is [email-masked]. Christian will also be able to give
information about the society to anyone who's interested.
