Default Plant swaps

I've received an email asking if plant swaps will happen at the urg meet
here on 7th July and the answer is, of course they will, if that's what
everyone wants. I think this very considerate question arose because our
home is a nursery that sells plants and I can only say how kind and
considerate it was of the urgler to ask me.
We'll set up a table for things people bring with them, just as we did last
time.

I 'haint bringin nothin' but myself and a present for you- I am hoping
Janet Tweedy will come as she has tons of plants and I have already
been on the receiving end of her generosity, she sent me loads!!

I have details of the flights, can you pick me up from Exeter Airport
at 14.40 on Friday 6th July and please may I stay 2 nights and depart
on Sunday 8th July when my flight departs at 13.20.

I know this is a very busy time of the year for you, is there a train
from Exeter to you?

She is very generous with her plants. Enormously so. People bring what they
can and what they have. Nothing to bring is fine, too. The main thing
really is the get-together and the chat, as you know.

Wonderful and yes and yes.

Actually, July starts a gentle slow down. People are going on holiday, or
they have what they want for their gardens already in situ. I'll meet you -
no problem at all and it's in the diary.

I'll bet it's waving even more now! There seems to be a gale getting
into gear outside here.

Er well can't really Judith it's a bit too far in one day

I did manage a VW van load of cuttings for Jill's do some years ago and
given notice I could probably do the same for Sacha but it's just the 4
and a half hour drive that gets in the way. Perhaps I'll send Sacha some
seeds and she can grow the plants in time for the Meet?

What a kind remark! People on the receiving end have been known to
barricade their car boots in case I manage to get another pot pot two
into their vehicles

I know it's probably a stupid question, just wondering if you have
Arum Italicum, I am in the throws of potting up a batch and they are
looking very good this year.

that Primula Francesca
you sent us is just lovely. I managed to get 3 the other day and have them
sent to my brother for his birthday. His daughter is named Francesca, so
that was lucky.



Well it took our eye when we saw it at a local Nursery, it was just so
unusual. Glad you liked it
