Thank you Zsolt. Much happening. Food, drinks, friends, plants; Gary Gee, Ireena, old and new faces, but no sign of Edwin.

Wow! Hope you don't mind that I post my favorite conifer photo from your gallery for those who don't have the time to look through them all....

Henk made a 2 weeks long hard program for Gary. Every day an other garden. I guess Gary will have so many impressions, which he never saw before in Europe.

On the photo taken by Barbara Henk and Gary are studying Picea engelmannii cultivars of Jerry Morris, Etzelstorfer and Kohout from America. On the small field there are about 1000 brooms.

Other dimensions. I'm unable to finish the documentation at Malik and Etzelstorfer since 4 years. Now in 8 days I made 4000 photos, but still not yet finished.

I also think, that now Gary has the possibility to "repatriate" home conifers back to the States, which were found earlier by Etzelstorfer, Kohout, Sevcik, Holubec there, about 300 brooms.

Nice work!

Must have been a nice time again!
unfortunately I wasn't there, something else came in between...

We see a lot of nice conifers and met a lot of nice people

Henk and Gary

Looks like a fun time with some fine folks.

Thank you for an explanation of the photo. I find it wonderfully amazing that an American is in CZ, looking at plants found in the U.S. by an Austrian*, German and Czechs. Certainly an international endeavor!

*knew I'd eventually get a spelling correction from Edwin!
