Well, they say 'nothing GOOD lasts forever' so we're always faced with that possibility from any one of our most desirable sources; not just for bulbs, but technical knowledge as well. I would agree, after 40 years of hard work, maybe it's time to cut back a little. Maybe--just maybe, she would spend some time documenting her lily experience and knowledge in a book like the other 'Greats' she worked with in the past did.

Now wouldn't that be wonderful!

Just so you all know, she has increased the number of varieties of species seeds offered. She has also added her Summer Palace trumpet strain seeds and Oriental strains Dynasty, Little Rascals and Summers End.

That would be wonderful! Judith is so full of historic knowledge too. I am often rereading Ed McRae's lily book knowing full well that upon each reread, I pick up some new information that didn't quite sink it before. Or maybe I just gain a better understanding of some things in there. In any case, Judith writing a book is a great idea!

Never say never
pardalinum said:The Lily Garden has dropped Sinfonia from their offerings this coming year. Glad I bought a couple of them last year. They have dropped several other cultivars and added a few of Catherine van der Salm's introductions. If you get the Lily Garden catalog be sure to read Judith's "Dear Friends" note jon page 3.


Connie,
Are 'Ice Caves' and 'Heart of Gold' still in their offerings. I was going to order them for coming season and will be dissapointed if they are no more offered. I've just checked their web-site, it is still being updated.

Walk to the mailbox. Find the Lily Garden Catalog. Kid 2 says to Kid 1, "Guess we won't be seeing mom for a while..."
