Hi Mark, Yes I have viewed the video lots of times during the winter months it is very good. I dont know who did it ? Great Video, some of the variety names are a bit sku wiff but pretty good anyway. Shame all the big shows didn't do a similar thing. Perhaps the National or Harrogate should follow the same path, always good for promoting the show and above all else the flowers. Obviously time and a willing candidate is the stumbling block. |

Are you going to the National Mark, I'm going on the 2nd so really looking to my first visit to the National. By the way, the four plants you sent are doing really well. Trooper Dan, Kiwi Gloria, Blyton Golden Girl and especially Spanish Weston Dancer are getting lots of compliments from the neighbours and passer-bys. Have been asked if I can grow some for people for next year. Thanks for the healthy plants. |

I may be taking some of Johnny Digweeds miniatures as he is in for a hip op next week. I hope to be stewarding. Anyone who aims to visit the national needs to be there first day, the flowers will be at their best plus all the exhibitors will be on hand to answer questions etc. I'm glad your plants are doing well. |

That's great Mark, Look forward to having a chat with you. Yes I've arranged to go on the first day, should get there about 10am, think I might have to wear my Nation Dahlia Society shirt for the occasion  |

Hi Mark, Yes I have viewed the video lots of times during the winter months it is very good. Had a depressing day with my leaf problems so I thought I better had show you the original video I made of the show. Just put on the first 5 or so minutes, that's all photobucket would allow  Hope you enjoy it, and sincere apologies to all you fine growers who really did take part |

Have a good cut for Wisley Ian, the weather has not been kind this week but after saturday looks like summer is returning some what. Birmingham tomorrow for me, should have a few miniatures and other odds and sods. poms look good but pushing the ring. Wont cut them till tonight. At least this breeze at night is keeping the blooms dry !! |

Ian Cheers Ian, I hope they get a good turnout. I'm sure the Carters and co will have planty entered. Dead handy when your allotment plot is within throwing distance of the show venue. I will be there at 5.30 am and then have to move like the clappers to be done for 10 o'clock. Cant do 2 x 2hr round trips like I did last week. Plenty of cotton buds needed for my medium decs, fly crap not good on light petals. Miniatures look Ok but even they have the odd sign of weather where the rain has sat on their petals for too long. Best of luck for all your shows coming up. You never know you might get that 3rd Terry Clarke ? Its all on the day. See you at Wisley !! |
