Hello All,

I seem to remember that, a few months ago, there was a discussion here
about ramsons but I can't find it now.

Can any kind person tell me where I might buy seed or plants in the
UK? I know it's really a wild plant as I saw some in Hungary last
spring in the grounds of the Esterhazy Palace (underfoot along their
vast avenues). I was hoping I might persuade it grow in my cider apple
orchard.

They prefer a damp and rather shady spot. I had them growing like crazy
on a north-facing stream bank with a hedge on top in West Wales. I sent
some of them to somebody in this group, perhaps as much as ten years
ago, but never heard if they'd arrived safely.
