    I got rid of a load of them on Freecycle, Ian. Some people even helped me lift them! I did sell some (clean ones) on Ebay, got £21 for 10

      Are they inside or outside Minki? I started mine off in an electric propagator and they were up in five days.

          Planting Snowdrops and Aconites "In The Green" (typing that I just wonder if I washed my hands when I came in - I suppose they would have been filthy, so I must have done - that's a relief!)

          Also planted Sorbus cashmiriana

          bare root, from Ashridge trees, they are a good 12' tall :) always worries me that they arrive with not very much root though - I would prefer rootballed I think ...)

                  I've got a massive list - whether any of it will get done is another story

                          Probably to cold to get them germinated , any chance of putting somewhere warm in the house ? what could go wrong they get to wet and the seeds rot.
