Have decided not to bother with the very mini pot tubers. I'll buy in what I need and if they do sprout....that will be a bonus. Most of what I want I can get from Station House £2 per plant and £5 delivery and packaging...with no limit on numbers. Thats pretty good.......am off for a browse ;D You say most of what you want.... .what are you looking for that they haven't got?I know that Sion is growing a few extras that aren't in his catalogue as he hasn't grown them before, but i know where the stock came from  I'm not sure yet.....for some reason I'm very indecisive this year....whether to show or not to show....whether to stick to min cacus and waterlily....or what.....Hubby has been ill and I've been concentrating on him (for a change   )......I'm always open to suggestions....in the past I've stuck with sml/min decs.....Mary's J; Ruby; Marston Lilac; Jomanda; Gateshead Festival.....etc., |

I'd add Brenda T to your list of smalls and if you like the colour of Senzoe and are prepared to put a bit of effort in with supporting the stems, and a bit of extra Potash, then Sion has got a few tubers of that to play with. At Southport show, that was the one that people really liked on his display.

Scrumpy did your Moonlight sport make a good tuber this year? Yes, some reasonable tubers produced, but what they look like now I'll know in a weeks time when i start them off. As a back up, a few went to Station House for trialling so if things go well, they will be released next year. |
