    I have plants that are surplus to requirements that could be brought to Barnsdale

    1 Ribes odoratum, yellow flowers, scented. well rooted cutting from last summer

    2 pots Begonia evasiana, last year from the little bulbils. Very hardy plant for dry shade eg under trees.

     a 2 year old from seed (maybe 3) Paeony, Molly the Witch

    3 pulsatilla vulgaris from seed last year mainly standard purple but occasional white 

    1 Lathyus sylvestris, climbing pink sweetpea type flower that grows well in shade

    any takers?

    Could I have a begonia , Nut. ?

    It should go under the oak. I didn't realise begonias could be hardy.

    Of course, as aquilegias are promiscuous little beasts, they could produce anything.....
