Hi Maggi, maybe I'm being dense but I can't see any sign of a forum? Is it in the member's area (which I can't access at the moment for some reason)?

The Mec Group Forum is accessed from the Forum link  from the top of the list to the left hand side of the main page : direct  link is  http://www.meconopsis.org/forum/index.php
It appears that anyone may register. The forum template is another SMF  version, similar to the one we use here - but the photos are only visible to members it seems.

Unfortunately the site appears to have been trashed by "spam" adverts for various drugs.

Please get in touch with Ian Christie  to warn  them, Steve - they cannot have any  filters in place to prevent spammers gaining access.

It's almost autumn meeting time  for the Meconopsis Group at the Botanics, Edinburgh. Talks include one on National Trust for Scotland garden at Branklyn a #Meconopsis @Plantheritage collection.
Rather a lot of SRGC  connection involved!

 All welcome.
