Re: Glasgow branch meetings programme

Ahh, that (sort of) explains the radio silence, although some automatic replies from official email addresses and a note on the branch website would be good to add. Level isn't crazy far, and I found the show details. Thank you! Are you planning to come? No I don't think I can make it Mat. Some oth...

Some years, the peak is as early as late April. This year, flowering is very late, both in the greenhouse and out; our Willows and Sallows are on...

Re: 2022 seed list

Maybe if an updated list of what is still available were published, the remaining seeds would be bought up whilst still viable. Win win all round 👍 A lot has happened recently behind the scenes, but I don't yet have the list. The seeds and the equipment are in the process of being transferred to th...
