Buried Treasures

I am enjoying dipping into the book in the evenings and reading
excerpts to my husband - not the plant stuff, as he is a non-gardener,
but parts of the narrative like jumping from boulder to boulder to
avoid landmines.

There was one complaint about all the photos being grouped. I found
that an advantage when I was filling out my seed exchange requests -
it was easy to skim through the photo sections and check the seedlists
to see if seeds were available.

I have been buying Ruksans seeds from Kristl Walek's Gardens North
seedhouse, but seed has not been available for everything, and his
book explains why - not all of his bulbs can produce seeds in his
climate.
