Hi there
I read an article by Charlie Nardozzi on your website recently and would like to thank you for sharing such great info on the net.
As people who obviously know a great deal about these plants, I wondered if I could possibly run a question by you? I have recently bought some of these:
http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants...
The company - Crocus - insist that their variety is self fertile. In fact, they told me that they have double checked with their specialist grower in Holland, who have in turn confirmed that there is no pollination partner for the honeyberry 'Kamtschatica' that they supply to Crocus. Almost everything else I have read concerning honeyberries would suggest otherwise and that a suitable pollinating partner is necessary for fruiting. When questioned further, Crocus say that perhaps "American websites are referring to the species plant rather than the cultivated form we sell".
I wondered what your thoughts might be on this matter.
Also, the plants I have a 2 years old and in 2 litre pots. They are around 15-20cm tall. Does that sound right for 2 year old plants?
Hope you don't mind me asking and of course I totally understand if you are too busy to respond.
Many thanks either way
Max
