I've been looking for a plant with leaves like Tilebarn Shirley for a while, and Tilebarn Nursery has now closed. I'd be very interested in a plant or seeds if anyone has any available, for sale or swap. Please email or PM me if you have.

Seed from Tilebarn Shirley and its sister Tilebarn greville will almost certainly be on the Cyclamen society seed list this year. Why not join the society.

Has Tilebarn closed all together, or just for mail order?

That is sad news. It was a superb nursery - & not just for  cyclamen.

Regrettably it has closed altogether and I agree it is sad as they had the best range of Cyclamen anywhere and a history of producing superb plants like Tilebarn Nicholas, Tilebarn Shirley, Tilebarn Greville and the like.
Pat is right, seeds from these selections will be available on the Cyclamen Society seed list.

Melvyn - what has happened to Peter's stock? He had lots of desirable bulbs as well as desirable cyclamen.
