Spring List 2021 + Covers ABERCONWY NURSERY ABERCONWY NURSERY, GLAN CONWY, NORTH WALES. LL28 5TL Rachel Lever, Tim Lever & Gemma Hayes Tel: (01492) 580875 www.aberconwynursery.co.uk [email protected] The Welsh Alpine Plant Specialists List of Alpine Plants Spring 2021 ABERCONWY NURSERY PRICE LIST: SPRING 2021 We are pleased to provide you with a copy of our new spring price list. This list cancels all previous lists . We hope that you will find something of interest. We grow alpines & rock garden plants (including some dwarf shrubs, acid loving plants, and ferns) as well as various other interesting plants from time to time. We grow only p lants that we like and find interesting, and tend not to be constrained by categories! All of our plants are grown on the nursery site, sometimes in small numbers per variety. As a result the stock situation can change suddenly. Some listed items can sell out quickly and unlisted varieties often become available throughout the year. Most of our plants are offered in 6cm to 9cm pots as appropriate for the needs of the plant. All plants are offered from the nursery subject to their remaining available . Plan ts can be ordered in advance for collection at the nursery. A few days notice of collection would be helpful, so that we can collect the plants together, especially if the order is large. There is no need to send payment with the order. Payment can be made on collection. We do not supply plants by mail order. Please ask if you cannot find what you are looking for. We have extensive growing areas beyond the sales area, and not all of our stock is out on display to customers at any one time. If you are looki ng for a number of specific plants in the list, it can save a lot of time if you send your list to us a few days before your visit, so that we can assemble the available plants from the far reaches of the nursery site for you. If you are travelling from a distance to collect specific plants, please ring to check current availability, as some items can sell out very quickly, especially at the start of the season. We have a large, covered 'Alpine Tunnel' with net sides, in which we can grow and display a larg e number of alpines. This serves to protect the plants (and our customers) from the extremes of wind & rain to which our site is prone, without Viola pedata bicolor making the plants 'soft'. In normal times, we are able to deliver orders of plants to the many AGS, SRGC and ot her shows that we would usually attend. Unfortunately this option is not available in times of Covid Restrictions. We hope shows and plant fairs will return in the not too distant future. If we know we will be attending any shows or plant fairs this year, we will post the news on our website.

  • LIBERTO's SEEDS and BULBS
    LIBERTO’s SEEDS AND BULBS BULB SEEDS 2020 There is a general tendency not to equate acquiring new bulbs with growing them from seed. Unfortunately, there are many myths involved in raising bulbs from seed. People generally think that they take many years to grow and flower but that is only true for very few bulbs, usually in Amaryllidaceae. The majority of bulbs in other families will flower within three years of growing and many in their second year (relate that to how many years does an herbaceous perennial or a shrub need to reach adult size from seed!). People also believe that bulb seed is hard to germinate. Fresh bulb seed, especially of Mediterranean taxa, is usually guaranteed to sprout (and in most cases without specific germination techniques like cold stratification). Don’t be afraid to try some new bulbs from seed. It is very likely that this is the only way to find some species and you can fill a whole pot with flowers for the price you’d pay for one bulb or less! Please scroll to the end of the catalog for sowing and ordering instructions. Listings of orange color, are new items in the 2018/2019 list. Acis autumnalis ‘September Snow’ 5€/20seeds – One of the cutest things for your autumn flowering bulb collection, these are really early flowering, usually responding with the first watering I give them in early September. White flowers with a pink hue. Albuca – An interesting genus from South Africa with peculiar flowers, the following are all spring flowering species and they tend to stay evergreen, keeping some leaves during winter but then coming back to full growth in spring.

  • Aturalizing Bulbs in Turf
    aturalizing Bulbs in Turf NT EX T BY J ANE M C G ARY P HO T OS BY N HU N G UYEN Meadows studded with flowering bulbs have been a subject of European art since late me- dieval times at least, as we see in the famous “Hunt of the Unicorn” tapestries in the collec- tion of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The motif, known as “flowery mead,” was also a favorite of the backward-looking Pre-Raphaelite School of the nineteenth century. Any gardener who sees these images is likely to want to imitate them. But is it really possible? The English garden designer and writer Christopher Lloyd described at length the flowering meadow at Great Dixter, but it’s important to know that this meadow—like those in the Swiss Alps—was mown or grazed on a carefully timed schedule to control the vigor of the grasses and allow the bulbs and peren- nials to complete as much of their life cycle as it over the years. Sowing annuals in disturbed soil possible. Annual meadows are a great feature of in a pasture next to my former home in the foothills North America’s Pacific coast, but I recall—in a east of Portland, Oregon, worked for two years, “Sunset” magazine article about imitating them but after that nothing but California poppies and in the home garden—where a writer admitted Gilia capitata (the latter is native here) survived. that the space devoted to this display had to be In the garden of my former home, there was treated at intervals with herbicide to control the a little round lawn on one of the terraces, and I grasses and coarse weeds that would otherwise considered it next.

  • Kurt Vickery Monocot Seed List July 2011
    Kurt Vickery Monocot seed list July 2011 Welcome to the 2011 main seed list Producing a seed list on a regular basis, I can now sympathise with the farmers, there always seems like there is something to complain about!, I was supposed to be co‐leading a tour to Syria in April, but with just a few days to go the foreign office advised against travelling there. With some very good work by Ian Green we were able to change flights and instead went just over the border in Turkey, I was very disappointed to say the least that we weren’t able to visit Syria, but Turkey delivered some very memorable moments, we were very lucky to see huge colonies of Iris sari and sprengeri amongst many other treasures. Of course My heart goes out to the innocent victims of the troubles in Syria, and hope that the opportunity to visit will come up again one day. Back home we were having a major heatwave, Abi did an excellent job of collecting Crocus seeds, but had strict instructions not to water (I would probably have given just a drop here and there if I had known). Ian Young in his excellent bulblog, said that he had never known bulbs ‘go back’ so early, me too!, I really don’t think some bulbs coped very well with it, and my Fritillary harvest was definitely affected quite badly Anyway, we did manage to come up with a few items, some of which I hope will be of interest. Special thanks are due to Peter Bird and Filip Seys for donating some really good wild material All seeds are from hand pollinated and /or isolated plants unless otherwise stated w/c means wild collected o.p.
