It took me years to get around to the breeding aspect but i'm hooked. The possibility of taking two Curcuma for example, one like "Candy Corn" that has basal blooms and one with a long stem like C alismatifolia has so many possibilities that I can't help but be fascinated. Tom Wood is coming for a visit to my house next week and I am really looking forward to catching up with him on his breeding projects. He is really the pioneer in breeding in my opinion. Dave and Tom's work with Gingers has been remarkable. Here is a photo of us together back in 03.
