The book compiled by members of the Meconopsis Group "Meconopsis for Gardeners" and hailed by the AGS as "an authoritative new book" will be edited by C. Grey-Wilson and will be published next year in a project with the Alpine Garden Society.

Hi Maggi, maybe I'm being dense but I can't see any sign of a forum? Is it in the member's area (which I can't access at the moment for some reason)?
-
OK literally just had an email from the group! Got the link now.
-
The Mec Group Forum is accessed from the Forum link from the top of the list to the left hand side of the main page : direct link is http://www.meconopsis.org/forum/index.php (http://www.meconopsis.org/forum/index.php)
It appears that anyone may register. The forum template is another SMF version, similar to the one we use here - but the photos are only visible to members it seems.
-
Ian Christie tells me that Registration is open to everyone and once you register you will see the pictures.
-
Unfortunately the site appears to have been trashed by "spam" adverts for various drugs.
-
Please get in touch with Ian Christie to warn them, Steve - they cannot have any filters in place to prevent spammers gaining access.
