Dear Kevin,
Thank you very much for your message.
Please find attached a small note written for the department's 'Plant
Cuttings' publication to put my query in context. We've collected the
data, and are currently analysing the results. If you have any stats to
hand (I'll stress 'to hand' as I don't want to put anyone out) that echo
what we're doing, it would be very much appreciated.
Take care,
Fran
