At least the glorious golden fleece is stable and has taken a lot of work to get it to this stage.

Joe Sharman sometimes comments that the yellow snowdrops turn green when planted in his garden soil.  So all yellows seem to be a bit unstable   with regard to how yellow they actually turn out to be.

Good point Alan, my 'Mother Goose' sourced last year as a resting bulb, has produced a flower with a strong yellow flush on the inner with a green horseshoe mark. Eric from North Green was very helpful and confirmed that this is very common when 'Mother Goose' is disturbed but reverts to full yellow when settled.

I will hopefully be able to post a photo when it is opened fully.

Interesting isn't it? I'd be more interested in the GRYM Mother Goose than the yellow Treasure Island...not that I can afford any of them at those prices

I agree, which just goes to show the value of the excellent AGS Mid-Anglia bulb sale, along with the great company!

Quite so - no way that'll pay for a secure courier.......

I think I'd want it delivered by hand at that price

Alan - They don't seem entirely stable here.  With heavy snow cover last year even some of the green markings were disappointing.  Is Joe on acid soil?  Everywhere is acid here aside from a very few areas laced with gypsum.

Thats strange - mine said don't you dare - now that's throwing the gauntlet down isn't it! But like you I don't have a bottomless bank account

Did anyone on here buy the cheap one? Bumblebee seems quite reasonable priced (relatively) for just £410 + P&P...

Ironically, it does not closely resemble a Bumble Bee, unlike 'Bumble Green ' which strongly resembles a Bumble Bee and costs a mere £40 Go figure!
