The Myddelton House Ultimate Snowdrop Day 2017, the warm up!

Josh Nelson and Emma T, discussing tactics and targets!

The utter nightmare of my snowdrop growing - the Inspector Gadget (Neil) and the MacGyver (my AT), in cahoots! The last discussion led to sand deposits in my freezer from ice blocks to chill Platyphyllus!!

Post Brexit, great to see our German friends (Martina Kopsieker), along with Dutch, Belgian and Japanese enthusiasts.

Arthur and Emma deep in thought over one of Arthur's lists

The lovely Cherry T, Mum of Emma, snowdrop hat lady and purveyor of fine cakes with Richard Williams!

As always at Myddleton ,a time to catch up with frends,the weather was better than other years ,apart from the short shower whilst in the queue, just felt quieter than other years as well. It felt the same at Harvey's the week before,,,,,,,,,,,,,,came away with  a few  ,one off my most wanted list      , chilled out afterwards in the café with friends which made a very pleasant end to the day
Trust all had safe journeys home

Dry day at least, I see.

Only just.  It was raining when I arrived at 10:00 but miraculously the skies cleared around 10:30 and we had warm sunshine for the duration of the sale.

This is what you get when you buy from Richard and Val (Woodchippings)  four flowers in a pot of Flyfishing bought at Myddleton House yesterday

 I think I can see the ripples on the water from the trout jumping!
