Dear Friends

I am a new member to this forum which i discovered only a few months ago.
My name is Oron Peri, from Israel. I am garden designer and a fanatic collector of
dwarf  geophytes from the Mediterranean Basin: Cyclamen, Crocus, Sternbergias,
Colchicum, scilla, romulea and many others....
All mainly from low altitudes that need hot and dry summer [34c today...]
Would like to exchange seeds  with other members from same climate conditions [if there are any....]
Just to give you an idea... I grow Cyclamen colchicum in A frig. [the one used to show cakes in a coffe shop]...they just love it and flower each year for the last 5 yrs.

All the best
oron

Welcome Oron to the Forum.

Would Fritillaria from approx 1500m survive with you.  I have some seed collected in Iran you could have.

Arthur,

Thank you for your kind offer,
unfortunately I can not grow Frits. from such altitudes.

The only species I grow easily here are F. rhodia and F. persica,
Last Year i have started to sow seeds of other species that origin from the Greek islands and coastal Turkey, hopfully they will do well with me.

Oh, my goodness, yes... of course... we already have Miriam from Israel.... you are quite right, Luit.....as you suggest, I AM still wobbly... I think it may be from the lack of chocolate ;)
Apologies to Miriam and welcome again, most heartily, to her and to Oren!!

Luit, this is a serious matter  ;D   While most opinions seem to agree that chocolate is to be avoided in cases of labyrinthitis, I am searching the world till I find a specialist who thinks it is, in fact, chocolate which is the cure.... ::) ;) So far I am on the 102,567th opinion..... :( :'(
