Luc Gilgemyn:
I'd love to see some Meco's posted !
We can hardly grow them down here so please Northern forumists - post along - I'm sure you're growing thousands of them !!!!! ;D
Thanks ;)

Susan Band:
Luc, Is this enough Mecs. for you. All are Mec. X Lingholme growing for seed, some have huge flowers.
Also growing well alongside them are Primula seiboldii with an amazing range of colours and Primula pulverulenta

Luc Gilgemyn:
Brilliant Susan !  What a view !  You're trying to match Luit's tulipfields !  ;D

And then...  we try to grow just one ... only to watch it dwindle... and finally disappear for whatever reason... to wet... to dry... to warm...   ::)

Thanks anyway for letting us taste !

Lesley Cox:
What an amazing sight Susan. I'll bet all your neighbours just LOVE you. :D
How do you sell all these? Are they just lifted from the ground then wrapped?

Susan Band:
Lesley,
All the mecs and primulas are grown for seed, I collect it and send it to a German seed company (Jellittos, am I alowed to plug them?). Steve Newal in New Zealand also does this, do you know him?
Its great over at the field, there are no neighbours ;D just the birds. ( also plenty unwanted wild life (rabbits, mice, deer etc.)
