I seem to remember reading somewhere, though, that if humans died out, much of our vegetation would return to its native state within a relatively short time. Hybrids just aren't very good at propagation.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123921266409714516.post-53860015728312404522015-07-29T03:27:49.817-07:002015-07-29T03:27:49.817-07:00One of my favorites.
