CNB MID-WINTER-FLOWERSHOW LISSE 2010

[Lvandelft]

The Mid Winter Show is always a something to look out for.
It's the first show of the year, where gardeners get informed
about novelties etc. in the trade.
Below I show just what is hopefully being of interest here.
Of course there will be pictures of flowers I showed already last year,
but this is inevitable as in other show reports in this Forum.

Every year there are many noveties on the show and maybe a few
of them will come into the trade:
                     
Promising seedlings               

These are the last pictures of this show.
I hope they will warm you up a little during this real winterly period (on the N. Hem.)

Why don't we hear anything about the Global Warming these days??

Because it is one big scam, the global temp has been static for the last ten years.

A superb report from the Show, Luit! You are able to make a proper judgement, of course, but to me it seems that this is a really fantastic year.... the displays seem really to "sing" with freshness and colour. Does it seem to you to be a vintage show?

Perhaps it is because our world is so white right now that all these wonderful flowers from other seasons look so glorious?  I  will enjoy revisiting this report to study all the flowers.

One other point.... are there no LADY bulb growers?
 We see only men in the photos......

Maggi,there are four females dressed in black holding up the nets in one of the pics, batch 4 arr 3.

Michael, don't you be cheeky.... I meant REAL women!

If you think what I think, we are on the same line, Michael

You got it in one.
