She originally sent seeds of German Red Strawberry to me which was a family heirloom and then a few years later along came what she named Orange Strawberry which I first listed in the SSE Yearbook in 1995.

Damon, did you end up bringing ANY heart varieties to the event? Or any varieties at all, but I mention hearts especially and you know why.

Fred, it sounds like folks had a wonderful time and I'm so glad that you offered to host the event.
