The haul.

More by weird coincidence than planning, (Unless they planned it in the supply of a couple or so baskets of that size) we just filled a second-hand Supermarket basket they had for "shopping" at Slack Top.

I cannot believe that every purchasing visitor buys exactly eight plants, but when we went to pay, the old lad who appeared to take the money produced a piece of corrugated cardboard, cut four slots in it, used 4 staples from a staple-gun and manufactured a box which exactly fit our purchases, as you can maybe see.

3 different shades of Ramonda, ("myconi" white, "nathaliae white again?? and label lost :¬(()
1 Primula we liked and hadn't met B4, ("Garyade Guinevere")
1 tiny Cotoneaster She's been hunting since the last one popped its cloggs, ("microphyllus cochleatus")
1 microscopically small Rhododendron, ("R radicans")
"1" S. Arnott snowdrop
and, arguably the smallest Daffodil known to man. ("Narcissus ..wait for it ..assoanus")

I'm not boasting, it just occurred to me that I'll be able to refer back after the inevitable loss of labels.

The "location's" a bit of a cheat in that it's where they were bought, not Blipped.
Be warned if you go, they don't have a "Plastic money" machine.
