Hello,

Attached please find the inventory of 2007 Seeds of Success collections
that have been cleaned and tested by the U.S. Forest Service's Bend Seed
Extractory. This material is available for shipment and distribution. The
collections in yellow are not available for distribution unless alternate
arrangements are made by the collecting team.

As we did last year, the Seeds of Success collecting team has the right of
first refusal. If the SOS team does not want the material, other Native
Plant Material Development Program cooperators' requests will be filled.
(Cooperators - please submit your requests at this time as well, and you
will be notified if they can be met).

If you have a project planned and need the material stored until a later
date, Bend is willing to store the remaining material. Highlight in green
those collections you would like Bend to store, and add the approximate
month and year of delivery to the spreadsheet.

The amount of available material is listed, this number reflects the 10,000
seeds taken off the top for the Seeds of Success National Collection.
Here is the break down for the 10,000.
2,500 - long-term storage 1 (Ft. Collins, CO)
2,500 - long-term storage 2 (Pullman, WA)
5,000 - working research storage (Pullman, WA)

Include the amount you would like, then the details of the project this
seed will be used for and shipping information. Without this information
the seed will not be sent. Knowing how the materials will be used helps
gain additional support for Seeds of Success, and increase funding
opportunities.

Please have your requests in by July 24, 2008. 5pm ET. Bend will start
processing the requests on July 25th.

I can be reached at 208-373-3821 until July 25th.

Thank You,
Mary
