Snowdrop events 2012

Thanks Maggi (and Maggi's friend)

Good to know the details as a few of us might be turning up.

[RichardW]

ditto, thanks for clearing that up, was a little concerned about turning up uninvited

And ditto from me.  The gardens of Myddleton House are lovely in spring time (although late February would probably be a better time than early February).

Do you think that applies this year, too, Alan, when so many folks are finding their plants are     galloping ahead of schedule?

[Alan_b]

Time will tell, Maggi.  I'm on about the same lattitude as Myddleton House but around 40 miles to the North.  Although I can find examples of plants that are way ahead of schedule, the majority in this area and in my garden seem to be close to their normal schedule.  The peak display of snowdrops is certainly some weeks off.

[RichardW]

same here, but I am worried about the groups that have booked for the end of Feb, if we have another mild spell I suspect many of the specials will be over.

Some details of the 'Snowdrop & Hellebore Day' being held by the Hardy Plant Society in Kent at Goodnestone Park on Sunday 19th February.

You should also look under the Latest News section on the NGS home page http://www.ngs.org.uk/ .  This gives more detailed information on snowdrop venues in Kent and Essex.

Maggi, I failed to recognise the gardens as belonging to forum/SRGC members. I did spot Jo's garden in Devon.

[mark smyth]

Paddy are you going to Hester's event?

[Paddy Tobin]

No, Mark, not going. I'm afraid these Yorkshire people on this forum have had an effect on me. I now seriously begrudge parting with my money.

I was talking to Bob and know that he and Margaret are travelling - you too? I would have liked to meet them both as I haven't met them in a while.

Paddy

[Martin Baxendale]

Are Bob and Margaret going to the Gala?

I think I could manage three Paddy:
Robins Wood
Cherubeer
Spring Platt

Although I could be wildly wrong
