Wow, Yann... did you buy them... ALL ? ? ?
I went to T.Delabroye's "Portes Ouvertes" three years ago. I had been a bit disappointed by what was left of his hellebores (but delighted with Arlette Dupont's snowdrops!)...now I understand why!!!.... YOU had been there before me!!!

No, sadly my wallet doesn't allow me to buy the whole nursery
I've met german, dutch, english and usual french customers, many buy between 6 to 10 plants, i guess to make the trip profitable.
First come, first serve, so if you visited the second or third opened week-end it's almost too late.
I didn't see Arlette, may be i'll see her on saturday.

Every time I see photos of the Delabroye hellebores I think I would love to see them for myself - and every year I realise my heart is not strong enough to take that much excitement!!
