A case in point, do you still remember the site that we went together in Hatyai where there're amp, mirabilis, x kuchingensis and gracilis?? It's all gone now... the whole area been bulldozed over and turned into rubber plantation. You can effectively categorize this as "local extinction" of those nep species/hybrids and I'm glad that I managed to save some of these neps and grow them in my collection.... so am I a poarcher or conservationist ???
My point exactly..... Conservation through cultivation..!
