Re: SilverHill Seeds
Just heard it from a visitor at an open day event of a grower of (African) bulbs.

Re: SilverHill Seeds
There is also some confirmation: https://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/tbg/v16n2.pdf
So not their (grand)children then.
Ondine Schrick has worked for Silverhill Seeds for twenty years. She goes on to say that the Saunders touched many peoples’ lives with their kind, generous natures. Their contribu- tions to the botanical and horticultural world are and will be greatly missed; the world is a richer place for their time spent here, however short.
Ondine continues... The first thing Rod said to me as I walked in on my first day working with them was “Keep your ears and eyes open and your mouth closed and you will learn a lot.” which she says she has done. Both Andrew and she owe their love for plants to Rod and Rachel. At this time Ondine, who has inherited Silverhill Seeds from the Saunders, will continue to run the nursery and seed collection will be done mostly by others.
