Purchasing seeds from Vlastimil Pilous' seed list

[Leena]

Thank you from me, too.

I'm very happy to have stumbled upon this list - lots of very interesting seeds (I had to be very restrained).
Thank you.

Has anyone recieved a seed list from Vlastimil Pilous ?

still waiting....

Thank you sokol for the list.
I couldn't resist and ordered some peony seeds. I have found that his peony seeds were very good in previous years (though I managed to kill P.parnassica seedlings in their first year outside). Hopefully the first ones from him flower in 2020 here.

Did anyone get a response from mr. Pilous yet? I sent an email at the end of december, but so far nothing.

I mailed him, because i got no seeds and no information and got the answer below:

>Dear Mr. Sommer,

 >I am very sorry,  I have no seeds ordered for you. This year is paradoxial - my stocks of seeds are very small and I received extreme number of order (many directly first day!)
 >For example: my stock of Paeonia beresowskyi  was 2 packets, Daphne retusa 3 packets etc. Roscoeas - all very poor quality seeds  this season, no distribution. 
 >I have  only Arisaema tortuosum and Triostemum himalayanum now - it is under EUR 10.00.
>
 >I apologize again.

 >With best wishes

hmm how sad. I've sent him another email now too, hopefully I have more luck.

I'm sorry to hear this.
I got my seed order already January 17th (order made Jan 1st), only 5 packets, because some were already sold out by the time I ordered (like Paeonia beresowskyi). I got a confirmation email when the seeds were shipped to me, along with the amount to pay.
I hope he has a better crop of seeds next year.

I also got my seeds from V. Pilous. However, I did not order them personally. I always take part in the various orders of my botanical friends from the Arctic Alpine Garden. Now I quickly write the labels and will sow the seeds immediately.
