Dear Mrs. Zielesch:
Thank you and Professor Olmo for the three cuttings of T8-43, which arrived in good condition and were planted May 22, 1972. I observed this morning and while they appear comfortable and viable, there has been no swelling of the buds as yet.
Sorry, there were no suttongs of the 'Sereksia' available this spring. Will you please put my name of your waiting list for a few cuttings next spring.
Hope Professor Olmo is having an enjoyable time in Iran, or is it Irak? Is he there on sabbatical?
We had a late freeze in Northwest Missouri the latter art of April, so there will be no apricots and no peaches. The grapes were no far enough advanced, however, and survived very well. It appears that they should do well this summer as the blossoming period is upon us with apparently large cluster.
Thank you again for the cuttings of T8-43, and please keep my name on the list for "Sereksia" next year.
Sincerely,Lexicon
