Tony Falla and Malcolm Cleal had a conversation together discussing Tony’s experiences working for a farmer growing daffodils from the 1950s to the 1970s. There were up to 40 varieties grown in Guernsey, but the main ones were Grand Soleil D’Or, Grand Primo, Princeps, Golden Spur and Sir Watkin.
Plant Heritage Guernsey
We have some lovely very old Guernsey pots, which have Nerines in them. They are handmade as we can see the finger marks in the inside when we are repotting the bulbs. Does anyone have any information on their history?
I have a feeling that you like white and very pale Nerines, so here's a treat.
Not only are these flowers gorgeous, the photographer is super!
Nerine sarniensis 'Corlette'
Have visited three lunchtimes this week but no one from plant heritage around
I’m drooling - I want them all!
Lady Corder visited the Nerine Festival this morning and also had a look at our National Collection, seen here with Andrew Lanoe and Rose Rankilor.
