| Hey, Zsolt. Love the fir brooms. Abies balsamea 'Three Heaven Dwarf' should be written as: Abies balsamea 'Treehaven Dwarf' named for Treehaven Nursery. -Sam |

| Jaro, I have seen it first listed at the Betlehem Nursery, later on occurs in Europe in some nurseries. No idea who made it. Maybe Dennis knows it, or Henk. What comes from America by Henk, they go also very fast to the Professore. Zsolt |

| There were 4 Abies pinsapo var. marocana witches' brooms found in the same area in Marocco. The founder was my German friend Gunther Eschrich. These are: 'Fatima' (W.B. 1) 'Atlas' (W.B. 2) 'Marokko' (W.B. 3) 'Tuarek' (W.B. 4) |

| It is good to see Abies balsamea 'Bayfield' in your post. It was a broom I found in 2003 near the town of Bayfield, Wisconsin. The tree is now dead. Dennis |
