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.

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! I'll strangle you! Send it to us, please. It's a wonderful plant
and so hard to propagate!

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!

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.

Back on line, we have had summer of sorts here the last 3 days, warm bright
sunny weather and no wind, but on Thursday from apparently clear blue sky a
huge flash bang of thunder and the computer was fried along with lots of
other stuff.

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.
