Great pictures Luc. I just love thinking there are folks out there that can't control themselves when it comes to buying plants  ;D what I really mean is folks that are worse than me. Glad you had a good time.

Thanks for the report and pictures Luc, so quick after the show!! ;D ;D ;D. Very good of you to bother. 8) 8)

He would have been shot, if he hadn't come up with the goods!

You obviously have your bus drivers well trained Luc. ;D

Alas, at Tabor any plants for sale will remain untouched by New Zealand or Australian hands. :'( Perhaps Angie will let me borrow - and run amok with - her credit card, on her behalf of course. ;D

I took my camera, but left it in the car - I knew I could not better both your choice of shots and the outstanding quality  :) ;D :)

Oops... glad you liked them Lesley... and let me live...  ;D

Angie, alpine gardeners are the same all over the world... wether they're Belgian, Scottish, English, Dutch or NZ'ers, when they see plants... they buy them... ;D

I wouldn't have wanted you to go back to the car Art...  ;D ;)

The raid was successful John - but I've never seen David's or Brian's car trunk, so can't compare...  ;D

You can't miss it if it's out and about Luc.  Maybe Mark's Tall in the green here.  ;)

I can't see the trailer on the back John ;D

I wondered about that too... but, as Ian explained... there is  only so much you can expect of a wide angle lens.......  ;)

Trillium nivale, just the loveliest of things. I think the nurserymen always like Harlow; it is spring arriving and there is a great atmosphere.


 Not the fullest of benches, perhaps, but I expect Kit and her Team were still pleased with the turnout.

I am just besotted by Trillium nivale.... I think it is  just a gem of a plant.
Looking at the potfull in Tim's picture, I notice a lot of leaves seem to have little yellow spots,( or even holes ?) in them - does anyone have any idea what might cause that?
