to complete the thread: i found these poppies some 3 years ago in a park in the south of Rotterdam. a place where there used to be garden houses for rent, they broke those down, and the next year the field was full with poppies, different kinds. here is a picture i took 3 years ago of what i think is the same poppie as the one on vertigo's pictures: http://members.chello.nl/rebekker/123.JPG this is not strange because a few years ago i had send some different kinds of poppie seeds to vertigo, including that one. for a few years they didnt came up, this year they did.
and now you want to register the plant, and who knows maybe what. it still seems a bit strange to me when i think about it 
you know what i mean, should i be doing the same thing as you, and try to register the plant or something because of the money that could be made from it? if there is anny money in it. or maybe register if that would be possible and/or just share the seeds with people, like i did before with you and still keep it exclusive? i prefer the last.

i dunno, i like the exclusive idea, but it makes it kind of vulnerable. if we register it n stuff it will virtualy assure the survival of this form.
as for money to be made, im still not sure about how that works n stuff. my friend the ethnobotanist assures me its possible to get it officialy regged and let it pay fot itself even steven. that sounds pretty good to me.
im not in this for money, i want to preserve the form (i realy love its looks) and if possible get a chance to name it.
also i told u on smartboard that ure welcome to come and involve yourself in any or all parts of the process, including the naming. as far as im concerned you have an equal stake next to my farmer friend and myself.
im celebrating my birthday on the farm there on aug 5th, consider yourself invited.
