Here Is a Quick Explanation of How the Seed Exchange Works
RULES OF THE SEED EXCHANGE The rules of the seed exchange have been revised in 2014, in order to make it run more smoothly, be more cost-effective (it makes a loss, so is a cost to the Society) and offer a better service. Please ensure that you READ these new rules and follow them: they are available to all so you will be deemed to know about them! INTRODUCTION Please remember that the seed exchange is basically a free service provided by the members for the members (you only pay a small charge to cover postage, stationery etc), and all work is done by volunteers. These rules are designed to make it possible to continue offering the service on the present basis; we simply do not have enough time to deal with either donations or orders which take up more time than they ought, hence the various inducements and sanctions we offer or impose. Here is a quick explanation of how the seed exchange works. Donors collect seed in their gardens as it ripens, name and package it and send it in to me before a closing date published in the magazine each year. I put all seed of the same variety into one large envelope (checking that it's what it says it is and that the name is correct as I go along), and when all the seed is in I make a list of what I have and number the envelopes to match the list. The list then goes off to press and the seeds go to the Cheshire Group to be packeted into the small individual packets in which they are sent out - over a thousand varieties, each into an average of twenty packets, and all numbered. -

Site Synopsis
SITE SYNOPSIS Site Name: Bray Head SAC Site Code: 000714 This coastal site is situated in the north-east of Co. Wicklow between the towns of Bray and Greystones. The bedrock geology is Cambrian quartzites and shales (with mudstones and greywackes). Bray Head consists of a plateau of high ground, with five prominent quartzite knolls and has a maximum height of 241 m. The more exposed higher ground has a covering of shallow acidic soils, with protruding bedrock and scree. Elsewhere, deeper soils are formed by drift deposits and are calcareous in character. The site is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) selected for the following habitats and/or species listed on Annex I / II of the E.U. Habitats Directive (* = priority; numbers in brackets are Natura 2000 codes): [1230] Vegetated Sea Cliffs [4030] Dry Heath Dry heath is the principal habitat over much of Bray Head. The vegetation of the upper plateau area is dominated by dwarf shrubs, mainly Heather (Calluna vulgaris), Bell Heather (Erica cinerea) and gorse (Ulex europaeus and U. gallii). Broom (Cytisus scoparius) also occurs, and associated with the gorse and broom is the Red Data Book species Greater Broomrape (Orobanche rapum-genistae). In the areas where the shrubs are less dense Tormentil (Potentilla erecta), Common Milkwort (Polygala vulgaris), Heath Bedstraw (Galium saxatile) and a variety of grasses (e.g. Aira praecox, Agrostis tenuis, Deschampsia flexuosa) are present. Where rock outcrops occur species such as English Stonecrop (Sedum anglicum) and Sheep’s-bit (Jasione montana) are found. Bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) is dominant in some areas. The heath communities which occur on the dry slopes above the sea cliffs, especially those south-facing, are more open in character and dominated by grasses rather than dwarf shrubs. -

Sea Thrift, Armeria Maritima
A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 22 Feb 2019 Sea thrift, Armeria maritima Sea thrift, Armeria maritima, is an herbaceous perennial in the sealavender family (Plumbaginaceae) native to mountains and temperate coastal areas of the northern hemisphere, especially northern Europe, from northern California to Iceland to Siberia. There are several geographic subspecies that vary mainly in fl ower morphology and pollen structure. It is often found in salty coastal environments where few other plants can grow well. Also called common thrift or sea pink, it is hardy in zones 4 to 8. This compact evergreen plant grows only 6 Sea thrift and creeping thyme in lava fi elds of to 12 inches high and across from a woody Snæfellsjökull National Park, Iceland. tap root. The slowly expanding mounded tuft is composed of numerous stiff, linear (needle-shaped), dark- green leaves that usually have hairs along their margins. This dense rosette gives the appearance of a low-growing ornamental grass. In richer soils the leaves tend to fall outwards leaving an open center. Since it is evergreen, it should not be cut back to the ground in fall like many other perennials as that will affect spring bloom. In mid-spring small pink to lavender (or sometimes white) fl owers are produced in globular clusters subtended by purplish, papery bracts on the ends of slender, unbranched, leafl ess stalks that extend well above the foliage. Each fl ower has fi ve petals joined at the base with fi ve stamens and fi ve The linear leaves grow in a basal rosette. -

Hummingbirds and How A wonderful and effective way to watch butterflies is to entice them with plants that they and their larvae (otherwise to Attract Them known as caterpillars) use as food. No site is too small to create a butterfly garden. You can begin to meet the Winter Bird Feeding needs of butterflies by adding flowers and herbs to an existing flower bed or container garden. Trees, shrubs, and ground covers are also used by butterflies and these can be included in areas throughout your landscape. A Ponds and Birdbaths colorful grouping of butterfly-attracting plants will help butterflies locate your garden when they are flying through the neighborhood. Butterflies and How to Attract Them A bonus of creating a butterfly garden is that it will probably attract not only butterflies but also other flying pollinators including bumblebees, Snags-The Wildlife Tree moths, and hummingbirds.
