SEPTEMBER 2001 SEED LIST

Dear Members,

Welcome to our first seed list for the ABA, we trust you will enjoy the wonders that nature has provided us.

All of the species on this list have been donated by the founding members of the ABA, all four of us, and is really just an appetizer for what lays ahead! Our gardens are growing each year, and many new species, as well as the good old favorites, are regularly flowering and setting seed.

I’m sure the same is happening in your garden?

Imagine what we could achieve if every member donated just one species to the seed bank each year. It would be awesome, and we all would all be growing many more treasured plants in our gardens.

So, come on. Don’t throw your seed heads in the bin, send them to the ABA, and share your garden with the rest of the world. Your donation will benefit our Bulb Association, yourself, and the many other gardeners who want to grow, and find out, about the treasures of the bulbous kingdom.

A little about seed donations…

· Seed will be received in small or large quantities; it’s up to you. Members are waiting to grow any species from your garden, so a dozen seeds will fulfill the needs of a couple of members, at least.

Seed should be cleaned, and free from any chaff or stem material. This makes our job of packaging seed much easier, and maintains seed free of virus and disease. This is very important for overseas members, as Australian Quarantine will destroy any seeds that are not clean, so please take the little bit extra time to de-husk your seed heads before sending them on.

Seeds are very important to us, being a seed bank! Which means that donors are equally important, without them there would not be a seed bank. So, if you have donated seed to the ABA, then you will be given first pick of any seed available on each seasons list. Make sure you get your order in quick, as orders from donors, that are received later than 3 weeks after a list is issued, will be put in line with everyone else.

Seed will be packaged in individual packets, for hobbyists and collectors, so that as many people as possible will be able to grow the material on hand. Seed will not be sold in larger quantities,as this is the job of commercial seeds men, not a specialist society. We provide genetic material for everyone to grow.

Please provide as much information as possible on the seed you have donated, including collection data from the wild, where the seed originally came from, are they hand or open pollinated, plus any other information you think may be relevant. We would like to collate this information for the benefit of other members, to aid both cultivation, plus future dissemination of your genetic material.

Your generous donation will be gratefully received, and every seed package sent will be acknowledged with your name on the list of donors, and our thanks, for your kind and thoughtful offering.

Happy Gardening,

Dirk Wallace, ABA
