                  I have a surplus of Hedychium gardnerianum, some is not showing buds some is, so cant guarantee flowers from them this year, but it seems a shame they should go to waste.
                  Unfortunately they are bulky and cost the earth to post.

                  If anyone is interested, maybe we could sort something out.
                  I'm not saying I can deliver, :).
                  But perhaps I could meet you half way, half way to Scotland is slightly more than I would plan:snork:
                  Its just a thought.
