I have not received mine yet. When we were moving i sent my entry form for the Harrogate show to the northern Sec with a note of our new address he acknowledged this when he sent me my exhibitor number. Just got a gut feeling his data base is not the main NDS one. If it has not arrived in the Sat post i will email the the General Sec and enquire about it. Nothing in the post today.  Nothing in the post today either, will have to email them. |

Just thought I'd say, I've had enough of the cold and the snow; it's minus something silly this morning so it can get warm as soon as it likes!

Taken a few cuttings off a dahlia seedling, i do not really need my cuttings too early, with the first show the last weekend in August.

I sent a Email to the General Sec of the NDS on the 4th Feb. Regarding our change of address. To date i have not received a reply from him, so today i have written a letter to him, to say i am not best pleased with his response to my Email, say the least, we have been joint members of the NDS for 20 years and this is the first time i have had any query with them.  Today i received a entry form from the dahlia trials Co-ordinator for the 2012 trials, i am not sure if i should re enter my seedling again as a Small Dec, because i do not know if the mention in the Winter Bulletin was favourable or the other way round. |

You should have asked Tel.....  Quote: "Terry Cotta, Terry Haigh. As the name implies, this cultivar has a very unusual terracotta colour bloom with dark strong stems - very much a novelty" ;D |

Cut the first cuttings off a couple of varieties, they are now in the bin because they were to thick to bother trying to root them.
The next lot from where they were cut should be more like it.

Awaiting reply. |
