Narthecium ossifragum
« on: January 26, 2015, 11:23:29 AM »
I have been trying to find a UK supplier of Narthecium ossifragum ( bog asphodel) without success. Does anyone know a nursery selling this species?

One of my  favourite wildflowers, Ian. If anyone knows of a source I'd be delighted to learn of it.

It grows in the wetter parts of my garden. I could send you some crowns when it warms up a tad. Feel free to drop me a PM.
