It was also very nice meeting you Luit. We had about a 1000 visitors today, also because of the incredible good weather. For next year it will be a weekend.

Hi Gerard,

I know I said I would come to your gala but I couldn`t,family afairs.

I hope it was a great day,weather was perfect so it should be.
any spikes left for sale?or ones with 4 petals,the ones you had last year?

Gerard, how wonderful that you had so many visitors.
I have a request, however..... by next year, you really must have a sweater with nice snowdrops on ! Your one with snowflakes is good, but snowdrops would be better for business, don't you think?? 

[Gerard Oud]

I will ask my mum to knit one, i know she can. I didn't know they were snowflake's, it was the only clean sweater left after week working.

Here a photo were Luit and i are talking about snowdrop's and the forum, and not to forget my son Sam who grows 3 different species of snowdrops. You will never start early enough!

I am pleased to see Luit looking so well.
Welcome, Sam, to the mad but happy world of flowers!!

I am pleased to see Luit looking so well.

Ah Maggi, to use Lesley's words we might call it resurrection maybe ??

Morning Gerard!

Great to see your son keen on bulbs, too! How old is Sam?

[Gerard Oud]

Good evening Thomas,

He is almost 8 years old and already recognizes single ones from double ones from a distance.

Here are some pics from the event and  the view we had from the window.

Good evening Thomas,

Gerard, keep his interest warm. Maybe one day he will search for special Galanthus with my son
who also has a good eye for different plants. He found a green-spottet-outer-petal before I saw
it in a local garden center (9 years).

[Gerard Oud]

It is very nice seeing him already explaining the difference between single and double to people who didn't even know there are also double galanthusses.
