694.100 : NARCISSUS ATLANTICUS * Morocco, High Atlas, above Amizmiz. 2000m. Among scrub, in soft, moist loam. Ex the 1936, E.K. Balls type coll. (A very local plant in the wild &, after almost 70 years, still rare in cultivation, where it is by no means easy to grow. Sweetly scented, creamy white jonquils carried singly on 15cm. stems. Distinct from the N. rupicola group in its deeper, cup-shaped corona & in the arrangement of the anthers.)

I got these from a well-known rare bulb dealer in North Wales as Acis trichophyllaJJA.630.501. A particularly good pink form.

Derek Pickard is a wonderful grower of Dionysias but he also grows other things jolly well too.  Yesterday at the Chesterfield Show he pointed out this little beauty and I asked if I could put it on this thread.

Paeonia wendelboi (iranica) from JJA 19199 seeds (2010 catalogue) described as Paeonia species nova - pix from Matteo La Civita

Paeonia wendelboi  JJA 19199


The pictures above are of  ...." a wonderful species of Paeonia that Jim Archibald found in Iran and collected seed from and which his wife, Jenny, said is 'one of the few plants which rendered Jim speechless when we found it'. An example of one of the very special plants from Iran which would be a beautiful garden plant if carefully cultivated and grown by nurserymen. Peonies are not difficult to grow from seed, but slow, and require patience like all of the best gardening 😊. This (below) is a picture taken in one of Jim's polytunnels showing, on the left, the collection of peony species he grew to collect and distribute seed from, proof that sustainable cultivation of rare and desirable wild plants by knowlegeable and committed plants-people both increases our respect for plants and the beauty of our personal surroundings."   from  Tim Ingram
