There also might be another tissue culture lab that would be willing to do this, probably would have to google for one.
There is another TC place in FL called Oglesby Plants International. I have ordered several flats of "Super Dwarf Banana" from them through their wholesalers. They hold the patent and copyright for that plant. They used to accept special contract for TC of plants. But I looked in their website, and did not find most of the information that they had from before. The links they now have only lead you to 1 page description of that particular topic or department. Nothing in any of the links would indicate if they will do special contract for TC'ing.

Then, also, if they did accept a contract to do it, where would we get the meristem to give them?
