Amarcrinum verses the goats !

Steven,

The before and after photos of your lily patch
are scary. They really did a number on the area,
didn't they. I do so hope that the bulbs are
still there and will surface again in the
future. You have some fascinating bulbs in your
collection (I've never seen that variety in
Amarcrinums before, and the Crinums you mention
are lovely), and I do so hope you haven't lost
them. You might have to resort of a reinforced
colourbond (powder-coated solid metal fencing
panels... not sure whether the name colourbond is
used overseas?) or something severely electrified
to keep those pesky goats at bay by the sounds of it.

Please give us an updated photo of your lily
patch as it recovers. I would love to see how it does.

And a belated welcome to yourself and others who
have joined this list in the time I've been
inactive. You may never hear from me, but I do
enjoy reading all your various postings. They
can be a big boost on bad days, that is for sure.

Thanks all. No more posts from me for tonight,
so you'll stop seeing my name pop up in your inbox.

Cheers.
