It's a pity you don't do mail order, I would like one of those for
France. Can I get one local to me do you think?


Judith


I'm sure you will be able to. Just do an online Google for their suppliers
and if that doesn't help, contact the breeders. I'd send you one, Judith
but Ray is cherishing them like his first born!


Don't be daft gel, I can buy my own!


I know but it's such a lovely plant it would be nice to give it friends.
The razorwire and CCTV cameras put me off, though. ;-))


And I'm just about to order the pure white
rosemary 'Montagnette' from Olivier Filippi. Would you like one?


Only if I can pay for it.

Judith

We'll tussle about that later.

get more, we can make a sort of low hedge of them somewhere. I feel that

Its full name is Gentiana makinoi 'Marsha' and Ray saw it last year at a
trade show. He says he'll be very surprised if it isn't pretty widespread
this year so certainly, do ask Notcutts. We brought ours in from
Pannebakker in Holland and you could certainly ask them who is going to
stock it in UK.

Is it a true blue Sacha? It is hard to tell from the picture.
