The International Rock Gardener reaches its 120th issue, marking ten years of this free magazine. Begun in January 2010 (as an experiment for one year !) IRG has proven to be a success. I little thought, when the idea for IRG was first discussed with Zdeněk Zvolánek, J.Ian Young and myself, that I would be editing it for ten years - with more in sight! The kindness and enthusiasm of our authors, who have so selflessly shared their work with us, and the appreciation of our widespread audience, who are also representative of our international ambitions are the ones we must thank for this achievement. This anniversary edition contains descriptions of two new plants, named for the “Watson Girls” ( as I have been calling them); from John and Anita Flores Watson; an introduction to the various cultivars now available of Fritillaria imperialis from Willem Wietsma and Ronald van den Berg, and a review of some delightful little geranium species from Allan Robinson. Download the "bulb-heavy" issue here: http://srgc.org.uk/logs/logdir/… As the IRG celebrates ten years, Ian Young's Bulb Log has now completed its eighteenth year of weekly diaries - so many bulbs, so little time!! Best wishes for the coming year! Margaret Young _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/…
