Re: coneflowers


Hello Avril

I shall be facinated to here about your trip to the national Rudbeckia
collection, just wish I could get up there as well, they are one of my
favorite groups. I would be especially grateful if you could keep an eye out
for Rudbeckia 'Herbstsonne' and 'Green Wizard' as I have been supplied with
both of these from various wholesale nurseries (when I'm buying for the
nursery I work for) and am quite convinced they are not correct. I will be
interested in your first hand desciption.
Going back to your original message, if there is anything I can do to help
you with getting stuff for your garden or info then please shout. If you
mail me privately with your address then I'll send up some info that might
help you. I know Cornwall is a long way away, but I have several keen
gardening customers in the same position as you and who, like you, haven't
let it stop them enjoying their gardening.
Bye for now,

Tracy Wilson. Cornwall.
