RE: [GWL]: Sunshine Farm Hellebores


you silly girl...:))) just saw this and the other one..:))) hey, it's great for Barry...so what the hay!!  I thought they were incredible and I found out he is a lurker and too embarrassed to promote this business on the list.  I was just helping him out a bit and look what it got...more exposure from you.  take care...:))

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

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.
