Oh, yes. I've been getting Barry's emails for
awhile. Now there's a garden to tour! It's on my list. Too bad about the border
and importing plants, eh?
I will have articles for you next week. This week
is recovery week. The book MS has been sent in and I'm exhausted. -cheers,
Yvonne

Hellebores
Just
wondering if you have had the chance to see the wonderful hellebores that
Barry Glick has on his site...I get his email notes and after reading this
thought I would pass along because these babies are beautiful...enjoy his note
and then click to his site...I think this is something that garden writers
should see and then talk about...you can also reach Barry from his
site.
I
also got an email from Dirk who owns the Plants Magazine - he sent me a first
out article on the new plants that we won't even see for a couple of
years...yes, Canada and the U.S. It will be up on the site for this
Sunday.
- ..... like a proud papa, I do
reserve bragging rights.
- What am I babbling about? Well go to my website, http://www.sunfarm.com
and check out some of the improvements that I've made in the last week or
two with the help of my secret (by choice), anonymous (by
choice), brilliant (she can't help it) webmistress K.F.
- What I'm specifically referring to is the updated "Focus on
Hellebores" link in the upper right hand corner of the front page.
- First, you can read the full story about how the Helleborus x
hybridus 'Sunshine Selections' are created in the section aptly named,
About Helleborus x hybridus 'Sunshine Selections'. You
can see some of the parental stock that goes into the bloodlines of the
strain at: Picture gallery of Helleborus x hybridus 'Sunshine
Selections'. I still have hundreds of slides to scan for this section
in the next few weeks, so stay tuned and I will let you know when they are
up.
- Next, it's on to read about our double Hellebores at: About
Double Hellebores
- Then and only then, can you view them at: Gallery of Double
Hellebores, but first get out your drool cups or get a napkin cause
you're gonna salivate excessively. Maybe before you go there,
I should make you sign a disclaimer that you will not appear on my
doorstep offering your first born child in exchange for one of these
plants. They are going into tissue culture and we hope to have
enough to satisfy demand sometime in the future.
- A word about the composition of the images. Although they are
high quality on a technical level, they are made for scientific
breeding reference and not for the cover of Fine Gardening
Magazine. Essentially, the images really don't do the flowers
justice. However I know that a discriminating gardener like yourself
will understand that. By the way, if you're into
details, they were shot in natural daylight with a Nikon F100
outfitted with a 60mm 2.8 Micro Nikkor D AF lens on Kodak Ektachrome 400 X
Professional Film. Exposure was bracketed by 3 - 1/2 stops.
