Johnny, with competition like you and yours and Mandy and Cliff I think it will be 'in my dreams' but on the other hand I might have a head start with ideas and visions from the experts  ;D

Hi all,
I'm going to do Mandys seed list tonight . Has anybody got any suggestions of plants suitable for miniature gardens that are on the AGS seed list?
Cheers

Excellent mini gardens everyone.  I just love the vertical aspect of the rocks...... not something you could even vaguely buy around here.  Cliff's drilled rocks are just amazing!!  I'd love a few of them for the garden proper, as they are so interesting.
Cheers.

Would it be possible to get a plant list for John Dower's beautiful creation? :)
