Some of the plants  coming from Ardfearn Nursery  (near Inverness) with Ali and Sarah  to the  SRGC Event tomorrow - the photos I've chosen concentrate on those plants with great  foliage ........ but around  140 different alpines are  being brought down to Dunblane  from Ardfearn!!

At the end of January,  they had snow at Rumbling Bridge - who shared this  photo of  Erica carnea 'Challenger' looking good even then!
 Graeme and  Hilary say ....
"Looking forward to attending SRGC Early Bulb Display on Saturday 16 February, at Victoria Hall, Dunblane."
