Thank you showing all those wonderful plants Tatsuo. I now realise that what we see over here in the UK is just just the tip of a very beautiful iceberg.
It's fortunate that the show is several thousand miles from here, otherwise I would be spending my children's inheritance.  ;). I don't know how you could just go there for an hour - there's several days of Hepatica worship there!

Just thinking the same as Peter was. I don't have any children to leave my money to but if I were there I certinally would have a lot less money thats for sure.
Only one thing is how could you pick a selection from so much plants. Amazing.

Angie, I agree. Just look at that sales market :o and all those beautiful plants. It's a good thing we can watch pictures here for free  ;D
Thank you for showing all these lovely photos of hepatica flowers, Karl, Michael and Tatsuo.

Now you know, Angie, Peter, Arthur, how we feel about Janis Ruksans catalogue. Strictly look but don't touch. Being millionaires wouldn't help us.  :'( :'( :'(

Being a millionaire might not help with plant import regulations, but I'm sure it would make many other things a lot more pleasant.  ;)

Hello, Jonny! Good to see you here :).  Any sign of spring in Värmland yet ?  I found some Hepatica transsilvanica in flower out in the garden today so I guess spring is almost here.

Ron, thanks. it is a seedling just has no name ;) The little flower smiled for me when I glanced over the thousands seedlings 8)

Art, it was JPY 5,000 to 3,000 :) It was the afternoon on last day of the show so I asked the shop owner who is an acquaintance of mine for a price reduction ;D ;D ;D But it was even a big shopping for me...
