Post by: Botanica on September 02, 2012, 08:43:43 AM: Thank's Maggi ....delighted "to meet you"

Your don't speak French personnaly ?

Have you some post in this site where you have exposed you photos of your plants in garden ? I am very interested in !

by the way..what do you think of my posts on alpines plants ?

I expect to receive some seed from a "forumeur" that i visited the garden in the Alpes for my project because i dont have many materials (alpines seed) at the moment to start now.

Someone on this forum has already launched a project of this type ? Are you interested in this genus of project ?

I need some indications for cultural (and seeding) for some species of Alpines plants ...Who is "the expert" of that in this Forum to help me to start correctly ?

So...I return to the Subject of my alpines plants and my photos of Alpines plants ....
I have saw this one in Alpes and no body can tel me what it is ? Perhaps a member of this Forum can do ?

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-TuDTkm8ZGm0/T_3J-4eheqI/AAAAAAAAAT4/Zz8eapCqCik/s720/DSC09332.JPG)

And have a good day ;)
Title: Re: Hello Everybody...i like alpines plants and i am french !
Post by: Maggi Young on September 03, 2012, 07:30:38 PM: Botanica, I think it very much depends on which region you seek a book to help with - for instance, here :
http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=8567.msg231477#msg231477 (http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=8567.msg231477#msg231477) you can read about a book to help with the flowers of the Dolomites. The Forum can be searched to find suggestions, for example, this thread http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=248.0 (http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=248.0) has thirty pages of ideas about books of interest.
That may be a starting point for you.

Post by: pontus on September 03, 2012, 08:07:56 PM: Bien l'bonjour,

vivant en suisse, je parle français...j'ai également une pettite pepinière ou je multiplie des bulbes rares du monde entier :

http://pontuswallstenplants.smugmug.com/ (http://pontuswallstenplants.smugmug.com/)

dites moi si vous y trouver des plantes qui eventuellement vous intéressent.

j'ai également des graines en petites quantitées de certaines plantes, ainsi que quelques cypripediums si vous voulez faire des échanges de plantes.

les plantes vivaces alpines ne poussent pas bien ici dans le bassin lémanique, avec 35°c en été ils grillent ou se dessèchent trop rapidement, donc j'ai du abandonner malhereusement la culture de soldanelles, meconopsis, gentianes..etc...

salutations

Pontus Wallstén

PS : to the englism forum members : a little reply from me in french about my nursery and also teh fact that perennial alpines dont grow well with me due to the intense summer heat here, but "alpine" bulbs which are summer dormant do very well..

Botany is a devouring exciting for me.
That is why I took the pseudonym Botanica. ;)

I search many sympathetic people for seed exchange of perennials (essentially) and hardy plants that can withstand temperatures as low as -15 ° C ...if possible. ;D

Actually i have Digitalis lanata ...nobody was interested to exchange some seed of this plants for example ?
I search most Digtialis species ..have you Digitalis obscura, digitalis ferruginea ..others ..?

Post by: Botanica on January 20, 2013, 06:45:13 PM: Hello Maggi !

Yes why not ;) ;D ....but I have never skiing in my life :P

I prefered Mountains in the Spring or in the Summer because i could see flowers and animals , and it most easy and less dangerous (I think ! ) .

My name is Botanica not SnowBoy ;D ;D

The chlidren have no flower to see in the first season, but other plants was in flowering in the garden.

The first step was discovering ..the seed...the potting...the germination "young" plant.. the growing .

They could discovering different type of seed, type of germination , type of leaf and growing.

We need some help to collected some seed of different species for the next year of the Germination Project, could you help me in any way?

We need help from all member and persons in order to collected most Alpines and Perennials species for ours experiments.

All members interested in, could contact me and we exposed, all the season, pictures (and movie perhaps) of ours experiments.
