Do you collect celandines? Can Gardeners World visit?
« on: March 12, 2012, 10:36:35 PM »
Do you collect celandines and live in England? Can a camera crew come to your garden? Do you want to be interviewed for TV? You dont need to have a huge collection.

Contact me asap please

Are you are looking for someone with a penchant for the genus Ranunculus? ::)

Can't think who would be the more appalled me, or the general public!? :P ;D

No, Mark, I think that David would be appalled to see himself interviewed on TV.  ;D  I don't think he was belittling anyone else, just himself. ::)  Good to see him using my moto.... get in with the insults about yourself before anyone else does!!  ;)
Cheers.

Hi Mark,
Wisley has 34 cultivars of R. ficaria. Mind you , it was a collection put together long ago and I can't say any of the present staff actually know much about them so if GW were looking for an expert or enthusiast they would be disappointed. But if they want to film I'm sure it could be arranged

Cheers
