It is amazing when you grow enough plants to watch for mutations.
A classic example is hosta, where there are a small number of
green species. We now have over 4,000 named cultivars. Only a tiny
fraction are seedlings and the rest are due to mutations. There are now
groups of plant nerds that go on sport-fishing expeditions to nurseries and
they aren't looking for fish.
I am one of those sport fishermen. i bless the unstable, for theirs is the
kingdom of heaven.
