    Hi noisette, this is Hayloft's info on sending plants abroad.:snorky:

    "Airmail postage charges

    We can send plants to Europe, but to ensure a speedy delivery the postage is a cost of £4.95 per collection ordered."

      IMG_1272.jpg A cheery few Winter Iris Reticulata appearing, not the named variety that Wilko claimed but can hardly complain for a grand total of £1 :) Blue is such a rarity in the garden isn't it?

          Sometimes you will find that the ones that are green become white when they mature. :noidea:

          Still lovely, though. :blue thumb:

              :snorky: If the pictures are to be believed, well, they are stunning, aren't they? If they're seed-raised, however, chances are that they'll turn out single :th scifD36:...we'll see!

                A few things in my garden...
                CrocusBobbo2Sm.jpg
                Crocus Bobbo from DesirablePlants - lovely white tips on petals - I hope it multiplies!
                acaciagarden3Sm.jpg
                An acacia I grew from seed - can't remember which - costiniana?
                AnisodonteaFebruary3Sm.jpg
                Anisodontea El Royo - still flowering EVERY DAY as it has for the last 2 1/2 years! (And it takes well from cuttings - just in case it dies of exhaustion)
                mistletoe3.jpg
                And the mistletoe is looking better than at Christmas. Now is a good time to try 'planting' it, so if anyone wants seed, just PM me...
