]]> Comment on First American Female Botanist, Jane Colden by Deb http://blog.caanfloral.com/?p=232#comment-98 Deb Thu, 08 Dec 2011 14:58:54 +0000 http://blog.caanfloral.com/?p=232#comment-98 Hi Cassie, I wish you luck on your report. I thought that Jane's story was amazing! I do not really know if the image I found is an actual portrait or an artists representation. I looked for images of her and cannot find any other images of her anywhere. There is a great deal of information on her and her family on the wide world of the web. I have included a couple of sites that might interest you while you research her. http://www.coldenpreservation.org/ http://arnoldia.arboretum.harvard.edu/pdf/articles/936.pdf The second link has many references that you might help you in your research. Accessing the information may require help from a librarian. Good luck! Deb Hi Cassie,

It is not titled that on the package but it does look like drumstick alliums and they a have a lot of the same attributes. The bulbs are 12 to a pack for 7.99 and they will be 15% off this weekend only. Thanks for your question! We do have a drumstick like Allium.
