Snowdrops and the Pacific Bulb Society
« on: February 01, 2013, 07:15:30 PM »
I presume that most of you will know of the Pacific Bulb Society and the powerful amount of work forumist David Pilling does for the PBS?
Well, he is making improvements to the PBS wiki's and making further  additions - like  a time lapse film of galanthus.

 Mary Sue Ittner of PBS announced on the PBS list that:

"David Pilling continues to make improvements to the PBS wiki.  He
recently made it possible to add YouTube videos and has created a
couple of short ones. The latest is a time lapse photo of Galanthus
nivalis. You might want to check it out. It's only ten seconds.

David added:
 "Early days. I later found a much better one on You Tube, unpromisingly called
"one hour in the life of the snowdrop":



Home page of the Pacific Bulb Society You Tube channel is:

David Pilling"


 Enjoy, Galanthophiles!
