Post by: Blonde Ingrid on June 17, 2016, 03:16:30 PM: My AT tells me that Anne Wright's Dryad Nursery resting snowdrop list will be published, all being well at 10am tomorrow morning.

It is bound to include some rare, seldom offered drops and you will need to move quickly!!! :)

The list will be available on:

Chocked full of goodies AND a free fridge magnet!

Thanks Anne!

Post by: Leena on July 28, 2016, 05:52:49 AM: My order from Dryad is also here now :), and earlier this week order from Glen Chantry arrived. I went over my budget this year :-[, but I thought that I had to order now if it becomes impossible or too expensive because of Brexit later on. Now I can't wait for next spring, and years to come when all these bulbs grow and multiply. :)
