Fleurs des Montagnes
« on: January 05, 2009, 02:18:40 PM »
Carol received an e-mail link from a French person called Ghislain Chenais today. I don't know much about Ghislain yet except that he is a lover and grower of alpines and is an occasional lurker on the Forum.
The site has some lovely pictures of alpines and I have obtained Ghislain's permission to post the link here.

www.fleurs-des-montagnes.net

I tried to persuade Ghislain to post himself but he feels that his English is not good enough - his e-mails to me are clear enough and I could not respond in French.
Enjoy his site and I will try to get him to join our happy band.

Ghislain, fine photos.
Il est préférable de faire les photos de cette taille : 760 x 560 pixels. Merci!
