Help to get seeds
« on: January 30, 2012, 04:19:04 PM »
Hello

I´m a newbie in the bulbs world but I wanna learn ,so first I think that I have to read a lot about bulbs although also I think that I should sow some seeds and see how they grow by myself.

I have two problems, first that I joined too late for the seeds exchange and second I dont know where I can obtain some bulbs seeds. Another thing that I´ll need will be your knowledge about whats the best species for start.

Thanks!

Pedro.

Pedro,I will have a lot of seed from the small romieuxii type Narcissus if you are interested, they have seed pods set already so should have them in the spring.

Have a look here and you can what I have.

You will be getting a consolation set of seeds from the SRGC , Pedro... that will give you a start...I  cannot promise they will all be bulb seeds, of course.



Michael, that's kind of you  :D

Glad you provided Pedro with the link to your stunning photos of Narcissus - and the others  :o

I could spend hours drooling - Maggi need the drooling emoticon again.
