U.K grower needs U.K contacts

14 years ago

Hi Guys

A U.K. visitor today commented how difficult it is to find other Brom. growers in the U.K. He would like to make contact with other Brom. growers if possible.

Contact Francis: fccjap@hotmail

Hope someone can help, have also suggested he join this Forum when he gets home next week.

Hi Ross,

We do have a few UK members on this site and if your visitor joins our forums and enters the names below into this site's search engine he/she can probably come up with some email addresses as a starting point. I just tried one name (flora_uk), and she can be contacted by email, so maybe the others can also.

Since I became a member I have kept a log of other members user names and their countries, mainly just out of interest and in case I wanted to contact them for anything relating to their particular country in the future, and looking up the UK section I can only find the following:

alibaba
cactuschris (Chris)- Cheshire
flora_uk
marko7
martyp

I don't know if this is of any help to you, but maybe someone who is more computer savy than I can advise a better way to do this.

All the best, Nev.

Hi Nev
good work!
I can be contacted by email via the forum, and would welcome any UK grower getting in touch (it is a small world though in the UK!)
Cheers :)

If you have space, Alchymist is sublime and was very cold hardly for me in central Ohio. Westerland is only semi-double but wonderfully fragrant; it does get some BS tho. I also love Erfurt, a healthy shrub with beautiful stamens on showy blooms 4 inches across. Cubana blooms and blooms; it's a 2001 shrub that really deserves to be better known; it is very BS resistant and a nice shapely plant. Lavaglut is wonderful as a garden plant, big sprays of deep red blooms that last forever on or off the bush! Eutin is another of his floribundas that could be listed as a shrub, just a great garden plant; color is not as pretty but it is the more resistant of the two. Caramel Fairy Tale is very showy and vigorous, and I absolutely love the color. All the Fairy Tales are big sprawling bushes here where I live now, in coastal SE Virginia. Lions Rose and Elegant Fairy Tale have more delicate colors; Brothers Grimm is more in-your-face bright. Lions is by far the most BS resistant here. Folklore, Kordes Perfecta, Kardinal are all hybrid teas I will always love. These are older varieties so may have BS issues in some areas, they were OK in Ohio in full sun. I don't order a lot of new roses these days, but this year I ordered Beverly, Eliza, Dark Desire, Pink Enchantment and Savannah. All are taking off with wonderful health and vigor. Um, looks like I didn't order anything that WASN'T a Kordes rose.

importing plumeria

Well, no i do not work there. In fact i volunteered to help a lady in a store that she has on funchal. But now university will begin tomorow and i can't help her till next hollidays. If you want to see orchids, it is better to visit Madeira's Orchid garden ( www.madeiraorchid.com ). I was there yesterday. I love to spend there a lot of time just to admire those lovely plants. Here they sell plumeria almost everywhere. When you buy a plant, please do not pick it from the ground holding the plant. Always pick the pot instead (this is a common error among tourists). And check up the rootsystem (usually sellers have them in transparent pots). Choose a plant for the roots, not for the leaves, cause by the time you come here (January) they will almost have no leaves (they are deciduous even here lol). Keep in ming that these plants do not tolerate frost, so take them inside before frosts arrive. In spring, take them outside. Be cautious when watering. The soil must be ALMOST dry before any watering action. In winter just water sparingly. i this helps. Kind regards Jindegales

Another reason foreigners might be buying..... Home Sales Off in 41 States, Prices Mixed MoneyNews/Aug. 15, 2007 WASHINGTON -- The homes sales pace slid in 41 states and the District of Columbia in the second quarter compared to the same period in 2006, a leading real estate trade group said Wednesday. The quarterly survey from the National Association of Realtors also showed prices rose in 97 of 149 metro regions from a year ago, while 50 regions had price declines. The national median existing single-family home price was down 1.5 percent to $223,800 from the second quarter of 2006 when the median price was $227,100.
