New Wiki Pages

Dear All,
I'd just like to mention that in the last six weeks or so we have created
some new wiki pages. Our PBS treasurer, Jennifer Hildebrand, created the
first place page in May 2003 after visiting the Getty Gardens in southern
California. I added a few more places (Drayton, Boskloof) after our trip to
South Africa (August-September) so I would have a page for special places
we had visited in the wild where they were a lot of nice bulbs. I hoped
that some of the others who went to the IBSA symposium and visited these
places would add their pictures too, but they haven't yet. We are slowly
making headway with our slides so if there is ever time I might add some
more pictures to these pages. I made a page to put some of the bulbs we saw
in Nieuwoudtville in 2001 and one for the Karoo Gardens too.
Angelo has been taking pictures of wild bulbs near where he lives in
Apulia, Italy. So we created a page for that and Mark Wilcox has gathered
up the images he already had added to the photographs page so they are all
in one place too.
We (meaning mostly my husband) took a lot of pictures last spring of bulbs
in the wild we saw while hiking so I have made a page for bulbs in the wild
for the Mendocino-Sonoma coast. Kristina Van Wert has started a wiki page
with photographs of bulbs in the bulb collection at the Mendocino Coast
Botanical Gardens. If you look at her pictures be sure you look at the Ixia
viridiflora that got sunk in the succulent garden. It makes for an
interesting backdrop.
Some of the rest of you who are associated with gardens may also want to
start a wiki page. All of these pages I have mentioned can be accessed from
the link below.
