Rare Plant fair Cornwall 31st May
Start by saying I am not able to go so am not self promoting but given the
mix of nurseries attending and the likely range of plants thought I would give the heads up. To be held at Tregrehan (fantastic place if you dont know it) Nurseries expected to attend ..Desert to Jungle, Taunton, Rob Grudge ..Nick Lock of Mevagissey ..Paul Bonavia of Tretawn, Constantine ..Churchtown Nurseries, Wendy Woods of Gulval ..Barracott Plants, Orchard Cottage, Geoff Turner of Gunnislake ..Treraven Plants, Mike Bell of Bodmin ..Mallorn Gardens, John Jerrard from Redruth ..Treseders Nursery of St Austell, James Treseder ..Tuckermarsh Gardens, Mark Fillan of Rumleigh, Yelverton ..Hale Plants, Jane Mitchell ..Lower Kennegy, Stephan Mules ..Dick Fulcher, Pine Cottage Plants Crug Some of the plants I know they are hoping to have with them on the day, but most nurseries have not said so this is just a taster Telanthophora grandifolia, Sonchus canariensis and Gynura cusimbua. Bocconia frutescens Deppea splendens Alstroemeria isabellana 'Fred Meyer' A Brillantaisia [how do you tell the species apart?] Piper heydei [proving harder to propagate than expected Cobaea campanulata Cobaea paneroi Cobaea pringlei Cobaea scandens 'Purple' Cobaea scandens 'White' Arisaema flavum Arisaema tortuosum Arisaema concinnum (nice green form with brown spathe mouth) Arisaema speciosum Arisaema speciosum var. mirabile Arisaema costatum Arisaema ciliatum var.liubaense Possibly young plants of Arisaema murrayi var. murrayi - one of the most beautiful Arisaema of all Arisaema thunbergii ssp.urashima Remusatia vivipara, pumila and hookeriana Colocasia gaoligongensis Pinellia pedatisecta Possibly the rarely seen Pinellia peltata Sauromatum horsfieldii (red form) No doubt a few others too. And a few other bits: Tetrapanax Eomecon chionantha Impatiens flanaganae Kirengeshoma palmata Herpetospermum pedunculosum I know we are a long way down, but if you were down anyway you would be cross to have missed it! -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |
