Title: Ron Rakto and Berkutenko contact
Post by: apios85 on December 18, 2011, 07:09:12 AM

Dear all,

Does any one have the email contact of Ron Ratko  and Berkutenko? There is a long time I did not received any seed catalogue from them.Are they still in seed business?

Also, I did not received any new seed list from Jim and Jenny Archibald since the death of Jim.What's happen about Jenny?They were my favourite seed source...

Thanks in advance.

Thanks David.One more retired famous seed seller....
And What's about Jenny Archibald? Did she still continue their seed collect and sale or not?

2010 was a sad year with the disapearance of Jim Archibald and Harry Hay...
Are there any reliable new seed source now?

Thanks.

I think Bob & Rannveig Wallis ('Buried Treasure') are planning to offer bulb seed on a regular basis. There is also Kurt Vickery for bulb seed.
