Post by: Lesley Cox on April 23, 2011, 10:27:31 PM: That's quick Roland. I already have about 30 species cleaned and packeted for the seed lists but then, I'm in the other half. ;D Just for once I am determined NOT to be late getting the seed in so have started really early. ::) Some were ripening as the last seedlist was being printed and others as it was being sown, so careful storage in the meantime is necessary too keep everything viable.

Post by: bulborum on April 25, 2011, 04:42:50 PM: Hay Lesley

I always offer them direct as the seeds are ripe and dry
but send them in one go

Some seeds where lost :(
because I was to late with harvesting
The roof from my barn was first

Post by: Lesley Cox on August 28, 2011, 09:39:52 PM: On page 1 Roland, why are all your seed names crossed out? ???
Title: Re: Seedlist 2011
Post by: PeterT on August 28, 2011, 09:55:43 PM: I have done the same on my lis too Lesley :P
Title: Re: Seedlist 2011
Post by: bulborum on August 28, 2011, 11:03:51 PM: Ina

then I cross the names

Roland
Title: Re: Seedlist 2011
Post by: Lesley Cox on August 28, 2011, 11:30:50 PM: Mmmmmm, OK, though I don't see the point. When I clean mine and packet them they go into small boxes for AGS or SRGC or wherever and then are packed into a padded envelope and posted.

once they are posted you can score them off the list of seeds you might offer on the forum, -as you would no longer posess them to offer Lesley
Title: Re: Seedlist 2011
Post by: arillady on August 29, 2011, 10:43:51 AM: Roland your Lilium columbianum is a favourite as my late grandmother used to grow an orange spotted lilium and also a late rose friend grew it too - if it is the same species. If there are a couple of seed available I would love some.

Post by: arilnut on August 31, 2011, 12:38:16 AM: Pat and all. Here is a link to cloth bags I have ordered to package iris rhyzomes
that don't have enough leaf to put the name on like dormant oncos. They should work
good for seeds also, especially large lots.
