First off many thanks to Maggi and Ian for registering this newly named Erythronium for me. And toi the n ew image-re-sicer which works a treat. Erythronium revolutum 'Alleyne Cook' in today's rain Last year I sent photos of this to Ian Young. He said the colour was noteworthy and recommended he could publish a short article on it in the IRG. Thus the name became valid. Its attributes seem to tick all the usual boxes. Named after the late great plantsman Alleyne Cook of North Vancouver, BC. As a young man he helped move the rhodos from Roza Stephenson's garden Tower Hill to WGP and Sunningdale Nursery and established the Ted & Mary Greig Garden in Vancoiuver, BC amongst his many accomplishments. He sent me this, his best revolutum find. More pix when it dries a bit. johnw
