Colesbourne list

You need to send £2 for the catalogue (and £2 every year if you want a catalogue every year - there's a space for catalogue cost on their order form, so you pay for next year's catalogue with this year's order. I make no comment.)

It strikes me, as a non-galanthoholic, that there's a certain amount of 'gouging' going on in the snowdrop industry.  For example, several of the varieties listed by at least one of the suppliers mentioned here appear to be available elsewhere at substantially lower prices.  Surely nowadays all commercial suppliers should at least put current catalogues on their website as a downloadable pdf, not least for ecological reasons.  As customers we are in a position to demand this rather than put up with petty exploitation and waste.

Grrrr!

Tonight I went to a talk by David Millward on bulbs. Fantastic.

David Milward is a super Speaker, isn't he?    I'm looking forward to his contribution to the talks at the Dunblane Early Bulb Day already!! Mind you, I did start happily anticipating that day within hours of getting home from the last one..... one of the best days of the SRGC year

I think that many of us would agree with you threre, Ashley.
