Wonderful show Brian.   Now you really can't leave us hanging without a cultivar name on the Disporum smithii, it would be too cruel.  What a plant!

Sorry John, should have guessed you'd like that one...Disporum smithii 'Rick' - I've modified the original post

[David King]

As my other half has already put his happy snaps up (I am the man with the tripod class 98, alias the man up stairs) these are Just a few general pics from the show with a couple of ultra wide angle views.

Brian  - Behind the R. trichostomum there's a white. Do you recall if it was another trichostomum or 'Artic Tern'?

Smashing pink trichostomum.

Such an unassuming name for such a stunner, with apologies to all Ricks.

As an afterthought maybe if our various groups were to put up posters in ...HM Prisons or wherever

Lesley - Precisely. That's how we got our Executive?*

*locally - not SRGC!

Well we're always being encouraged to think laterally. Are you one of the Executive John?

Does anyone know what species is/are involved with Gaultheria 'Mulberry Wine?' Labelled as a female, presumably it will have mulberry coloured fruit but if this is a female plant it implies a male is needed for pollination and fruit set. This is true of the NZ species but the Australian and, I think, the South American species are monoecious. i.e. hermaphrodite so both male and female in the one plant, in which case, little point in labelling it female. This plant has a South American look to it.
