Dowling Munro a sort of authority on snowdrops has an open garden in the
Hollies, Prestwood next Friday from 10 - 12 in aid of charity. He has
loads of different varieties several yellow ones and is considered an
expert on them.

Tomorrow there's a snowdrop garden opening in Wooburn Green near High
Wycombe for the NGS

By the way David we had a dahlia aficionado also called David talking to
the HPS this afternoon in Winslow, he was talking about a rare double
orchid dahlia that only he and a friend owned, I said I bet David Hill
of Abacus nurseries would want one of those and he remarked that it was
Mr Hill who was his friend
Tochy Oko it sounded like,

Good speaker, very interesting. Like his unique carnation dahlia he's
just grown/bred!!
