Ron and Lyn Bezzant kindly offered to buy wholesale s ome bulbs and corms to sell at the Stirling Group meetings to raise funds. Here is Iris reticulata 'Purple Gem'. Note the slug damage.

I would like to place a small order with Leonid Bonderenko but since I have not ordered from him before I am not sure how to price it. According to his Web Site I can pay by cheque in Ł's but then I need to add bank charges? How do I calculate what amount to add-or am I missing something?? ??? Can anyone give me guidance please.

Does Bonderenko do a seed list? Bulbs are a no-no for us, from Europe especially from the more obscure nurseries to whom one would have to explain our draconian import regs. I'm sweating blood and losing sleep over the Ruksans list which Thomas kindly sent to me.

histrioides George under glass now but destined eventually for a new bed in the garden that will be devoted to small Iris species.

Try Leonard Bondarenko's web site Lesley: http://www.litbulbgarden.com/ (it seems to be down at the moment).

It's working OK now, but don't see any seed on it. Of course given my advancing years I may have missed it!

Thanks for the websites boys. Much of interest on both - not that I need more seeds but I never can resist as Thomas knows only too well.

David, you really must stop referring to advancing years and failing eyesight. There are only 5 weeks between us and it's making me paranoid.
