Can't find an order form online??

Seems the website is very much a "work in progress"   

 I note, hoiwever, that Joe's  "'drop out three"  is listed - though I hadn't heard of anyone who signed up for it  who had actually received it -  have others  more news on that?

Not sure whether there will be an order form, but this document tells you how to order:

http://www.monksilvernursery.co.uk/user/monksilvernotes2016pounds.pdf

it's on his site, scroll down the left side under Information then Buying Snowdrops

[Maggi Young]

No actual order form as such then  it seems - just  write  out your order fill it in and add your  full details  and send it off with your cheque.

You could probably adapt the availability list to function as an order form.

I paid for it but never received it.

Between you and me, I'm inclined to the belief that the main purpose of "The 'Drop Out" was to put into print the term pterugiform in order to mount a challenge to "Inverse Poculiform" which Joe does not like.  Having achieved that end with issues 1 and 2 and also exhausted the pool of his own pterugifrom snowdrops to show pictures of, it seems to me that Joe lost interest in this project and that is why issue 3 has never appeared.
