Well, maybe I should plant a few of the yunnanense seeds myself and then
try those plants outdoors in the ground here in central Indiana.

I'll send a few of these yunnanense seeds to Eric for the SeedEx; there
just were not a lot of these seeds.  There was only 1 female inflorescenc=e
and three males this time.
