Not so Leo. I am on Facebook, joined the Thai Zephyranthes and
Habranthus group, as well as the English speaking one. It compliments
the PBS.

An interest in bulbs can be a very lonely thing. Certainly here where I
live, I have no-one who has a similar interest. It is wonderful to
communicate with others of like mind. To exchange seeds and ideas, I
revel in it. And the acknowledgement of each achievement. And I have
learned a lot from the Facebook group.

Yes, for a lot of the learned knowledge I go to the PBS.

Bulb growing takes both knowledge and social interaction with exchange
of ideas and seeds. For those who are so lucky, even exchange of
bulbs..... Knowledge on its own is a lonely thing.
