These plants are generally called "heathers• or "heaths" in English-speaking regions. The role of an International Registration Authority is defined by the International code of nomenclature for cultivated plants (ICNCP), the current edition being that published in 1995. This checklist of cultivar nameswith in the denomination class has been compiled from a number of sources. It has its origins in the work of D. C. McClintock (Registrar1970- 1994) whose card files were compiled over many decades and provided an invaluable source of information. The Heather Society also acknowledgesthe significant contributions of the following dedicated people: T. A. Julian (Vice-president), the late A. W. Jones (Registrar, 1994-1998), Mrs J. Julian (Registrar 1999-) and R. J. Cleevely (Honorary Secretary). Many other members of The Heather Society, as well as other botanists, horticulturists and individualswi th interests in, and knowledgeo f, these plants, have also contributed. The Heather Society also acknowledgesthe s ubstantial assistance given by tts affiliated societies and their members, particulartyH. Blum and J. Flecken( Nethertands), J. Schroder and K. Kramer (Germany), Mrs B. Johansson (Sweden) and the late A. Dome (U.S.A.). This checklist is derived directly from a computerised database that was devised and is managed by D. J. Small. The entries in the databasewere checkedand edttedb y Dr. E. C. Nelson.Mrs A. Small (Administrator ofThe Heather Society), R. J. Cleevely and Mrs Maynard (Secretary to Mr McClintock) provided invaluable assistance at a ll stages of the editing and production of this checklist The research work for this checklist and its compilationwas funded, in part, by a generousgran t from the Stanley Smith Horticultural Trust.
