Good Value Alpine Garden Society
Regular visitors will remember that I recently received a gift of membership too the AGS.
I continue to get good value for money via the magazines, free seeds and the local West Yorkshire Group meetings. A recent talk by Tony Gartwaite with photographs by Mike Ireland was called ‘show stoppers.’
This is an excuse to show some more of my pictures. Hover over pictures for info
From the alpine house at Kew.
I have started a collection of various primulas after spotting this alpine variety Primula allianii Joan Hughes
Primula aureata nepal is a bit harder to grow in my greenhouse.
See more about Hepaticas and how the Japanese grow these fascinating plants
Regular local alpine shows are a good way to pick up tips.
The national shows move around the country so keep your eyes open or check with the AGS
Specialist nurseries also turn out at these shows and it is a chance to get some new stock.
