Shame, but you missed a couple of really big ones yesterday. They were stuck right down the back of the old growing area in amongst the weeds and were only found in the afternoon. I’d say they would have been just what you were after……they’ve gone now though.

Talk to Sally at the next meeting if she’s there, she’s an azalea and camellia expert.

Ruth :)

Hi Ken
Here is the link..
http://www.satsukisociety.com/

I have been a member for the past year or so, fantastic value from my perspective. Susie Nolan is a really nice and helpful person. Arthur Robinson needs no introduction even on the east coast

I have some identification and growing books and videos if you would like to borrow them
Regards
Steve
