Just FYI, you are correct, as of the date of your post, re F.M.B. not having been meristemed. However as of now, a clean piece was sent to Beth Lamb in FL and she has meristemed it. Plants are at a point of being available.
The only reason I mention it, is it frustrates me that when looking at an available piece of one of these antique plants on eBay, there is no registry that tells us if it's been meristemed to know if the seller is reliable in their description.
