Superbe!!  How one would choose between these plants is  beyond me - I would  never  be able to make a choice without  spending a fortune - so many gems.

Each year it's a colors festival, here're 2 more plants inside the kitchen ;)
They're not for public sales and are used as mother plants for next pollination sessions. I was lucky to receive them as gift.

You are indeed a lucky man! They are all so beautiful, thanks for showing.

Would I get a gift if I would come and take pictures? I will be happy enough with something like 231 and one like your 246  ;D

I not only took pictures but also bought other plants. I know Thierry for a long time now and we trade plants friendly.

It is hard to imagine how you still have place for new plants in your garden!

Still have few holes to fill, but yes my urban garden is small. Hopefully i now grow bulbs and seedlings pots in a small piece of land an 90'old woman lend me, 300m from the house. I'm still looking a bigger land but it's really too expensive in the area.
In the south of the country i own a dry land that let me multiply bulbs but i can control what's happen there each week. In the southern country side the land is 10 to 15x less expensive than in north.

Gabriela i'm sure sending living plants to Canada needs phyto, quiet expensive, that's a shame.

That explains the so many pots you show, full of those little cute, bulbous plants!
And yes, I mean no, sending/receiving living plants it's too crazily expensive. Seeds and images  :)
