Gail and Cheryl, John, thanks again.... Brian has helped me with this :   "  'Baylham' a hybrid double found on the side of the road in Baylham Suffolk by Barrie Carson-Taylor.

Forumists to the rescue again!


North Grange is proving elusive , though.

BARRIE CARSON-TURNER?
This gentleman seems to be responsible for a number of excellent snowdrop introductions and yet I have never knowingly seen him.  Last year he was selling snowdrops on ebay but I have not noticed any from him this year.  So who is he and where does he crop up?

Whoops sorry Maggi, just proves I can't multi-task ;D

Super plicatus Davey, an excellent shape.  Lovely to have a good Ecusson d'Or Hagen to contrast with all your virescents :D

I think he is a musical arranger John F will know.

No worries Brian- it's still Forumists to the rescue, with Steve, isn't it ?  ;D

Such fun that  he is the same guy! http://www.randomhouse.com/features/livingmusic/author/

Anthony Derby bought 'Baylham' from him a few years ago -  even I was taken by the neatness of the flower.
