AGS Seed List No 61 2012-2013

WELCOME TO THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY’S 61st SEED LIST Please read through these notes and also the notes on the back of the order forms before completing the forms. The main distribution will begin in December and will continue into the New Year. Please note that the distribution takes place from Pershore and the office will be closed for the Christmas and New Year holiday. Consequently, no orders will be made up between 21 December and 7 January 2013 The seeds offered originate from various sources and cannot be guaranteed true to name. Neither The Alpine Garden Society nor any official of the Society can be held responsible for what is supplied. Members are reminded that named cultivars and hybrids cannot be relied upon to come true, and plants raised from seed from cultivars should not be labelled with the names of those cultivars. Seeds of many species are in short supply and we can never have enough to meet all requests. If you request very rare or scarce species you may be disappointed and we advise you to spread your requests throughout a variety of seeds on the list. We do limit the allocation of rare and sought after species to try and be as fair as possible to all members, especially those members who donate the rare seed. Surplus seeds are those remaining after all applications for main distribution seeds have been met. Please see the notes on the back of the order form for further information. On-line ordering is becoming the most popular way to order seed. There are many advantages in ordering this way, in particular a built in link to pictures of the plants on the list. You can make your selection, then come back later and narrow it down or change your choices. Ordering and paying is easy on line and it is very helpful for the team making up orders. We will take care to ensure parity between on line ordering and postal ordering so neither system will get priority. Please go to http://www.alpinegardensociety.net/seed/exchange/ and follow the instructions on the page. Easy packs: We often get requests for seeds which are easy to germinate and grow, so this year we have introduced several “Easy Packs”. These packs contain a number of specially chosen varieties of seed, which are suitable for beginners or those people wanting quick results. The packs will also contain information on the plants included, and an instruction sheet on how to germinate and grow these varieties. Please select the code letter(s) of the pack(s) of your choice in the box on the order form. You may request any number of packs within your allocation. They will also be available in the Surplus Seed Distribution, subject to availability. All packs contain seeds which are easy to germinate and grow, in a variety of colours. None of the plants in these packs need Alpine House cultivation. Overseas Members: We remind those members outside the UK and the EU that most countries restrict the import of some species. It is the responsibility of members from overseas to check the laws covering seed importation before ordering to make sure that anything they request is not on their country’s list of banned imports. Failure to do this could cause confiscation and destruction of all the seed within the imported packet at the point of entry to your country. Overseas members should pre-check the list of approved species by contacting their local Ministry of Agriculture. We will do what we can to fulfil your requirements. For orders from the US, Australian and New Zealand we will include a printed list of your seeds to meet your countries’ requirements, and we will do what we can to ensure we do not send banned species. Guidance on restricted species may be found on the following sites: New Zealand: http://www1.maf.govt.nz/cgi-bin/bioindex/bioindex.pl USA: http://www.nargs.org/ USDA regulations do not permit the importation into the USA of any parasitic species, any species of the genus Lathyrus (without treatment) nor any member of the families Berberidaceae and Rutaceae. Wild Collected Seed is donor coded to enable us to identify individual collection sites. The initials after the plant name refer to the donor, please refer to the donor pages at the back of the booklet for codes. A species with 2 or more donors is indicated by >2.
