geranium sanguineum Droplet(=minutum)
« on: March 22, 2011, 09:22:23 AM »
Where can I find G.s.Droplet.In the Plantfinder:only Rosie's garden plants but...I got no reply to my mail.
A small root cutting would be enought.I'd like to use it for hybridization.
Thank you for your help.

I have my suspicions that Jackie (Rosie's Garden Plants) might have shut up shop.  Her website went down a few months ago and no seems to have been removed altogether.  I was planning to pass by and check it out for myself as I live fairly near, but if she isn't answering the phone, that isn't like her.

It's very sad if Jackie has closed. She was very good at what she did and very very very good at chatting. I visited there a few times at the height of my Geranium fever and we swapped all the time.

She lived across the field from the nursery so if anyone lives close by maybe you could knock on her door.

yes I spoke to her for about 45 minutes on Sunday. The nursery has moved from the field, as she calls it, to her house. She hasnt been well for the last couple of years but didnt say what was wrong but did say she has a couple of sessions to go. Jackie now sells at farmers markets. I offered to make her a new web site which she has accepted and that should be done as soon as she sorts out a list for me

Nothing from Jackie/Rosie's

My local nursery has stock of 'Droplet'. I was there on Wednesday. If you want to try cuttings I can send you a couple
