EASE OF COLLECTION: Collection and reestablishment were carried out by Yosemite National Park; data not available at the Lockeford Plant Materials Center. METHOD OF CLEANING: Collection and reestablishment were carried out by Yosemite National Park; data not available at the Lockeford Plant Materials Center. PROPAGATlON METHOD: Cuttings received in flats were transplanted into cone cells in University of Colorado in Denver mix of perlite, peat, vermiculite, sand, and Osmocote (50-50 mix of peat/vermiculite had poor drainage). These were place on bottom heat at 70§F soil temperature; misting was set for 4 seconds at 6-minute intervals, later changed to 4 seconds at 10-minute intervals. Potted cuttings received in cone cells were placed in lathhouse and fertilized with Osmocote. The latter, left in lathhouse for entire winter, had better performance than cuttings rooted in green-house. Results with cuttings were poor.
