This in from Paul and Tete Barney of Edulis :-
"Dear Fellow Snowdrop Lovers,
This time last year seems a long way off now! So much has changed and is changing. As a Galanthus grower, the perfect storm looms with Brexit and Covid. With Brexit there will be no movement of Galanthus into Europe without Cities certification and Covid means that any indoor sales events have been cancelled.
Online sales this year have increased, with many more people visiting the website, but we only managed three plant sales between April and November.
My Galanthus list seems to get longer each year. This year many will notice the addition of a number of new bulbs to us. Some of which have taken years to bulk up. Notable additions are : Aldo Nefat, Arwen, Castle Little Star, Daft Punk, Dryads Gold Charm, Face Value, Green Day, Green Zebra, Pieces of Eight, Sheds & Outhouses, Susan Grimshaw, Timberwolf, Tumbledown, Valentine’s Day, Dangley Yellow to name a few…..
When ordering please send me an email with your wish list. The time will
be noted and all orders are on a first come first serve basis. I will reply with
availability and confirmation will be sent. Please don't send any money until your order is confirmed.
Due to Brexit, EU (including Eire) orders will be sent out before Christmas. This is not ideal but
there in no other alternative. UK orders will be sent out from late January. The bulbs are sent out in the green, washed and packed in moss. We have been very happy with this method of dispatch over
the last few years. The bulbs don’t mind a few dark days at this time of year. We recommend potting them up on arrival into 9 cm pots with a gritty loam based compost and then planting out
in their final postion in early March.
