I too was lucky enough to visit Harry and afterwards to get his catalog of seed he sent out free every year. There was always a story or two about some recent experience in his garden that made his catalog fun to read. At the moment I have an unidentified (and not weedy) white Nothoscordum in bloom from Harry seed, originally grown from Flores and Watson seed. Because he was so generous with others, people were generous with him. David Victor kindly took my husband and me to meet Harry and took along a number of plants to give him. Harry quickly went through those plants, saying, "I want this", "I don't want this", etc. David said he was always pleased if something he brought to give him Harry wanted. I will never forgot that wonderful visit and the strange background noise from the freeway that made it sound like you were at the ocean, but you couldn't see any cars since so many plants had been added to provide a screen. I was surprised that there was no notice on the list when he died. I think David said that he was to get the Herbert medal and people were waiting for that to be announced. I finally added a note not too long ago that he had died on the wiki page Lee started and I added to, <http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…> David Pilling added a link to John Grimshaw's blog about his death that you can access from there. It didn't say anything about his collection. Maybe someone on this list who knew him can let us know. I missed the catalog this year, not because I wanted more seeds since I hadn't ordered any recently, but just because I always like reading it and remembering the time I was lucky enough to get to meet him.
