:bowing Thank You. I'm making a side list if no one from Canada gets a cool grower.

I had done some looking before but got stuck finding some of the ones I liked in Canada. Now I'm back I'll have another go.



This is one of the ones I was looking at before. I would really love to grow it and I had also found it was available in the EU and in the USA but not found it in Canada. Many Masdis would be in the cool group and so from what has been said above it would not matter if a cool grower was available in Canada or not, but this one is more an intemediate (although that makes it better for me)... ho hum, this IS very difficult but I now have a week at home before I go back to work so I will try and spend some time searching.

This is very difficult Rosie! I'm not having much luck either and I was on the same page as you with finding some Masdie's for the cool growing section.

Go ahead and suggest a few that are not available in Canada and if by the time it goes to poll there are no Canadian's getting a Cool grower we can leave it on the poll. Thanks.

So far I don't see any Canadian members participating in the cool group so that is a good point Dave! So is the Dracula the only plant that has been suggested for the cool group or is it the only one that has made the cut?

Becca 07-20-2009 09:51 PM

I must have overlooked those, sorry!

Edit: I just looked the list of participants over again, is it fully updated? Because I am just not seeing anyone in Canada that is signed up for the cool growers....I must be confused...lol.

I'm investigating where some potential project plants can be purchased and on a Gernan site I've seen some labled as "aufgebunden" which literally translates as "un-bound". Anyone know if I'm right in thinking this means 'bare-root' when used in this context?

Yes the list's are updated as of last night. I'm keeping a list for cool growing plants that can be found in Canada US and Europe. But because we don't have any Canadians getting a cool grower (As of yet) I'm keeping a list of cool growers that can not be found in Canada as well. I hope this clears things up.
