Thanks for posting that article Erik.
Tony's got such a great sense of humor and his writing(including the plant catalogue) is interspersed with all sorts of hilarious things.
I love his saying: something about "....until I've killed it myself, three times."

Very nice-

I tried growing Dracunculus vulgaris last year but it never got going.
