Book Grow Nerines by Graham Duncan

[grenadier]

I have been trying to purchase a copy of Grow Nerines by Graham Duncan without success. I do know it can be purchased from Kirstenbosch bookshop South Africa the problem with that is the complexity of sorting payment out with them etc., Does anyone know if it can be purchased within the UK. Also can anyone on the forum recommend any other good beginner’s book on the growing of nerine’s. I would certainly appreciate any help.

Have you tried Silverhill Seeds?
They send an invoice & you can pay by credit card or Paypal.

Thanks Ashley I have just tried Silverhills on your recommendation unfortunately, they do not have a copy. I keeping hoping I will eventually strike lucky and find one.

Kirstendosch bookshop...................

Beware, the guides tend to be VERY basic.

Money better spent joining the UK society?

Thanks Vinny 123. I have taken your advice and taken out a membership with NAAS. I hope I can now further my knowledge on the nerine.

Specialist societies tend to be bursting with totally OOT enthusiasts and even more with detailed nowledge offered more than generously.
Somehow, there will be a way to ask  if you cannot find answers to your questions, if not in "joining packs", there will be some way or another.

Nerines - quite popular in the UK - you should be fine.

They don't float my own boat especially, but there are lots of species, many available in cultivation, and almost beyond counting numbers of cultivars.
