OK I give in I can't stand this talking in code ::)
What snowdrop book and what sales list - it is not fair to talk about them and not give us outsiders a bit of a clue!!

Valentin, 21 from 1 'Diggory' bulb... that is a good result indeed!
mark smyth:
Brian well done about the description.
I'm envious of the chips/twinscales. I tried it this year and failed. Out of 30 that I chipped, including many rarities not in circulation, I only have 11 successes. Many are just one ot two survivors. Thats the end of chipping for me. The only sucess was Narcissus 'Navarre' that produced 4 bulbils from each chip. Although I have the list of bulbs chipped I refuse to total the loss.
