I can answer that one John, it's Joe Sharman's Monksilver stall, that's him bending over to get something from the crate.

Your have a very good memory, John. My girlfriend is the blond. You can see her garden in this web-site: www.tuinfleur.nl . You were very busy in the stall, but still took time to talk to us. This was a great place to visit. For us it is a good chance to visit all the specialist growers in one day. The weather was great and we loved to meet people we only knew from this forum. We also met a young German snowdrop lover, I donn't remember his name. But we also talked to him. We love to go there next year again.

I'm glad to hear that, I expect a lot of people will be pleased to have that and I did not know, after Günter's death, if an English version would still go ahead.

I only just found this post and the link to Rika's garden. It looks terrific. Is it close to Kalmthout?

Rika will be very happy with your comments. Thank you.

Steve

The distance between our house and Kalmthout is 330 km.
saterday we left home at 6 and came home again at 9 in the evening.
So you can see it is not to be done in one day.
I sugest you take your wife to the Keukenhof in spring and make a combination with a visit to the northern part of Holland. You can spent a few days here and see a lot of nice gardens, nurseries and other interesting things.

We will stay in contact about this.

Lina.
