Query for Charlie
Charlie, did you get any Rhamnus from seeds last year? I remember you
saying you were going to try that and Ray's going to try this year. His remarks about it yesterday jogged my memory. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

I collected the seed but then thought "what am I doing?" I don't want it to sell it and I have a lovely one already in the garden so I binned the seed! sorry. It has a huge crop again this year. -- Charlie, gardening in Cornwall. http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of National Plant Collections of Clematis viticella (cvs) and Lapageria rosea |

Charlie! I'll strangle you! Send it to us, please. It's a wonderful plant and so hard to propagate! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) I will see whats left, the irony is that I took just a single cutting originally from a friends garden, it grew, and I have never managed to get it to root since! -- Charlie, gardening in Cornwall. http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of National Plant Collections of Clematis viticella (cvs) and Lapageria rosea |

We were consoled to find that Olivier Filippi also finds it hard to propagate. I think Ray got about 3 to strike but goodness knows how many he tried from. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

My birds are quick but I was quicker! I have some of this years seed if you want them? -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of National collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cultivars |

My birds are quick but I was quicker! I have some of this years seed if you want them? Yes please! Very kind of you, Charlie. We had some thunder here but no rain to speak of. I was in town, expecting to be half-drowned in a downpour that never materialised. I know we all remark on it but it is a very strange weather pattern. When you think that Bristol got such a horrible bashing in the rain and it's only 2 hours from here by car, it's remarkable that so far, we've had 3 bright almost totally dry days. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |
