Title: Spring Show at Prague
Post by: ruweiss on April 05, 2012, 09:00:30 PM

Our friend ZZ sent me the attached  photos from the Prague Spring Show with the added comment.
Many interested visitors came to this event and admired the fine plants after the cruel winter.
The biggest amount of Saxifrages from the Section Porphyrion (Porophyllum) showed Karel Lang from Czech Karst, second was Jiří Novák from Pardubice. The Show was for 10 days. Narcissus were shown by Jaroslav Baláž. Primulas was from Josef Plocar and Vojtěch Holubec. Trillium nivale was from snows of the cooler highland garden of Zdeněk Řeháček.

Beautiful indeed.

My one regret about next year's Conference is that the Porophyllum saxifrages will be over - and I won't be able to buy any plants either. :'(

You can cry on my shoulder. Maybe Karl could send you seeds.
