Memorial Garden
We are going to build a memorial garden to our baby Grandson who was 34 days old when he died. His name was "Bailey". I've looked at the RHS plant finder and one of the plants listed is Narcissus "Bailey" but it was last listed in 2001. Has anyone an old copy of the Plant Finder and can look up any reference for us? Or can anyone suggest where I can start looking for this Narcissus? Thanks. Steve and Liz |

Try contacting this society http://www.daffsoc.freeserve.co.uk/ There is also a Rhododendron baileyi and a Meconopsis baileyi and I'm pretty sure there's a Dianthus of that name, too. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |

There is also a Rhododendron baileyi and a Meconopsis baileyi and I'm pretty sure there's a Dianthus of that name, too. Other baileyi plants are Cornus baileyi, Yucca baileyi, then there is a cactus Echinocereus baileyi. Jennifer |

Steve and Liz Also there's genera Baileya (a daisy of some description), Baileyoxylon and Austrobaileya, and many species baileyi, baileyorum etc. See URL:http://www.ipni.org/ipni/plantsearch...ey%25&output_f ormat=normal&find_sortByFamily=on&find_sortByFamil y=off&query_type=by_que ry&back_page=plantsearch Acacia baileyana is a nice plant, but IIRC it's rather tender. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |

There's a Dianthus called 'Bailey's Celebration': http://plants.thompson-morgan.com/uk...5126/1?SA=1303 -- Sue |
