    Thank you Pete for your kind words.

    I am a self taught Plantaholic. I have a passion for all plants from bulbs, ferns, flowers, trees and shrubs, and grow a fair selection, purely as a hobby.
    I am still constantly learning.
    A small idiot proof digital camera and the computer have really opened my eyes to even the most common plants. I am now looking.
    I am still constantly learning.
    I cannot get over all that is on www.
    I try and chose the links that I add to my posts with great care.
    Sadly there are a lot of pics on www that are not what they say they are.

    S. surfer - you are right about being wary of what is on the internet. I like to look at quite a few sites and then take a mental average of what they say.

    I too have got really caught up in the plant world. What I can't get over is how many lovely plants there are out there that I had never heard of. I just want to grow everything. :D

    I hadn't seen this nursery before, thank you Silver Surfer. My own favourite Crocosmia is Solfataire, lovely bronzey foliage too.
