Yes that elwesii was looking great

Paddy Tobin:
Maggi,

To say someone is a 'dote' would certainly be a compliment, to mean something beautiful, loved, admired etc. and what plant more than a snowdrop deserves to be so described.

Paddy

Maggi Young:
Paddy, I make no reply to your question, in case I incriminate myself but I thank you for your meaning of dote. :P

Paddy Tobin:
Ah sure, Maggi, You're a wee dote yourself!

I was looking at your photograph with Mark, in the Bulb Log, and didn't think it was the same person at all. You will have to change your picture, come out from under the blue raincoat, and show yourself better. You have been 'hiding your light under a bushel', so to speak.

I see that Mr. Bulb Log will be visiting Dublin later in the year. Hopefully, I will manage to get to it but it is on during the week and facing a 100 mile drive home and a classroom full of children the next day is a little daunting.

John, is that G. elwesii 'Carolyn Elwes' the one that infamously was stolen some years ago? Some survived then or was there another patch for security?  It is often commented that it is good horticultural practice to try plants in different locations in the garden in hopes that one environment will suit it well but it seems that there may be other reasons to do so also.

Paddy some were left behind
