Genealogy is my other main interest so I know that I don't have Scots blood Maggi - but I am 50% Yorkshire which accounts for it!

Not pure bred Leeds then. He'd still have the beer cooler intact, just in case, if he was. I do! Never mind, my aunty was had two chemist shops in Leeds. I'm sure she'd find a cure?

Ian's Granny's family had a pub at one time, before the Brits started cooling beer!

Mine too durin't war, then she opened an (unlicensed ???) hotel in Hudderfield. It was pulled down to widen the road past the police station over 20 years ago! The day after the purchase order was signed some nut sent in workmen to put an axe through each of the beautiful oak doors inside the building. Morons. >:(

Now exists G. ikariae ssp. iakiae and Gal. ikariae ssp.snogerupii

Do you think this plant is the real snogerupii ? It's under this name I had it

Hi Bio ,

It is difficould to say - the differnce from snogerupii to ikariae is by my own plants :
ikariae has dark green leaves
snogerupii has more ligth green with more shiny leaves .
Futher snogerupii should flowering earlier - in my collection not a difference .
By my trip on Ikaria I found always only the darker form .
Is your plant from Czech. Rep. ?

Greetings
Hans

You may be interested in his page from the old forum:
http://www.srgc.org.uk/discus/messages/8/14532.html?1123799214 where there is discussion about G. snorgerupii.
Here is a photo of Paul Tyerman's from that page of the plant he grows as G. snogerupii:

Haven't heard from Paul for a while, hope you are okay, Paul! ???
