I currently have about 180 semps in my collection, about half of them being NOIDs, then about 25 selected seedlings started either this or last year, and 2000 of this year's seedlings and 1000+ spares (the latter do not really count...). I'm currently not planning on expanding my collection. I prefer to save the space for next year's seedlings. Last year's non-selected seedlings just found a new home in Italy.

My collection is big enough to find something worth capturing in a photo every time I get out with my camera, but small enough to fit our balcony.

Still it is tiny compared to Martin Haberer's collection where most of my named varieties are coming from. He has more than 3000 named
varieties in his collection and Andre Smits in Belgium is supposed to have more than double that amount.

Below I reposted some photos of Martin's collection.
