Title: Seeds from Greece
Post by: Matt T on February 24, 2015, 04:29:04 PM

Hi folks,
I'd like to offer seeds of a few Greek species, all free to Scottish Rockers and I'm happy to pay postage too. Small quantities only, so there's enough for 3 or 4 people to get a small pinch each. PM me if interested.

Campanula versicolor, ex Parori Gorge, Pelops - why do commercial suppliers never mention that this species is scented? All gone
Cistus salvifolius, ex Neokari Gorge, Pelops
Hypericum empetrifolium, ex Sirikari, Crete Only one share left!
Verbascum arcturus, ex Aradena Gorge, Crete - gorgeous toothed and felty leaves, probably best for those in dry climes! May be able to find enough for one or two more

I can also offer what I believe to be Digitalis ferruginea from approx. 1,200m in the central Taygetos mountains. All gone, snapped up quicker than hot cakes!
As before, PM me if interested.

I might also be able to squeeze out another share or two of Verbascum arcturus if there is still interest in these. Could still scratch around for a share or two

For those of you who had Campanula versicolor from me, mine have started to germinate! They are absolutely tiny.
