Alex - "the greenhouse'? It looks like a wonder of technology and neatness! It even has a notch engineered out of the plunge to accommodate the vent openers!  :o

Hi Anne - well, i couldn't open them otherwise! Your C. baytopiorum are in that picture, one left of the top right (as you look at it in the pic) corner.

The C. heuffelianus is 'Carpathian Wonder' from Janis.

It is likely I may have the odd spare N. cantabricus petunioides if anyone is very keen? I can't be sending lots of parcels all over the place, but could do one or two...

OK, enough takers for the Narcissus now - unless anyone has an amazing swap, of course  ;)

Beautiful Romulea Michael. I've just taken a pot of germinated seed (sown 19 October 2010) into the greenhouse from my open seed frame today. I'll compare notes with you around 2013/14 ;D

David,

Maybe you could bring the pot in and show them the picture on the computer (or take a copy of the pic out to them).  It might show them their potential and they might hurry along and flower earlier?  ??? ;D
Cheers.

Thanks Peter. Provided I don't kill 'em in the meantime I can look forward to next year ;D
