Thanks Mark, John, Jamie, Roger and Christopher for keeping this thread
going in such a satisfactory way.

Now my friends Album, Alba and their cousins Album En, Album In, Album
Inous, Album Inuria, Album Ose, Album Inoid, Alba Core, Alba Nian (from the
Armenian branch of the family), and Alba Tross know that they will not be
discriminated against in the future should the opportunity to name a plant
for them arise. 

Surely there already must be a daylily, iris, daffodil or hosta named Stamp
Album.
