I enjoyed reading "The Seedsman's Trial Grounds" presented by W. Atlee Burpee. He made some observations about people presenting the same varieties under different names and how it is inappropriate and illserving. He also discussed the importance and the obligation of someone in the seed trade to verify what they are putting out by trying it and critically comparing it to what it is being presented to be.

Seems very appropriate to consider before circulating any newly found/acquired variety/heirloom...
