(dust - what dust?) and I'm glad you asked about Julie! - Julie Morris is Director of Horticulture - she's the doyenne, the diva, the big cheese. She's been here since the dawn of time and Blithewold would not be Blithewold without her (and her opinions on things like the color orange and how often to water the greenhouse). She's retiring this year - more on that when I can face it...

When seed catalogs and things like Plant Delights' spring tome come out, I can ignore dust just as well as my DBF does! lol. (By the way, I think I missed something. Who is Julie, and why should you care if she doesn't like something?) Unfortunately, I’m more like Sue–I tend to do what I want and put off the rest.

Kate, I wonder how long it will be before they stop sending us the print catalogs and we'll be ordering online too - I hate to think of all that paper but I do love flipping actual pages...

It must be great fun picking out what to plant for Blithewold ... it's so much better with a friend, I agree. Mostly I only order online and try not to do too much of that. This is the first year that I didn't force any bulbs ... I am missing them. Happy New Year! I had to smile when I read your comment about Gail always seeming to have the more interesting catalogue.

It'll be fun to see what's new and blooming at Blithewold next year. (and who knows, one of these years I might actually get to visit!
