Dear Gardening Friends

This season is shaping up well with good spring rains and our bulbs are looking great. As we put our 2012 catalogue together, we are still enjoying tulips here in our garden at Mt Somers. We have some wonderful new lilies & spring bulbs available this year.

In the fashion world we are seeing gorgeous bright colours coming through. We want to capture this trend with our catalogue this year. The myriad colours found in both our lilies & spring flowers will look fabulous planted in pots or in your garden. Sit down with a nice cuppa or glass of wine & enjoy planning. They also make great gifts for Christmas, Birthdays, Mothers Day etc. Gift vouchers are available.

Our orders are dispatched in the order in which they are received & this usually is the 2nd week in May (weather permitting). Please order early especially those in limited numbers to avoid disappointment.

Once again our fields will not be open for viewing this summer, but we do plan to attend the Ellerslie Flower Show .We will also be at a few other shows throughout the Autumn and we do enjoy catching up with folk at these .

If we get a warm , wet summer remember to spray for Botrytis, both Lilies & Roses with (Thiram or Bravo) .
We trust your gardens are bringing you great pleasure. Thank you for your support through 2011 and we look forward to giving you great service in 2012 .

Warmest Regards
David & Wendy Millichamp
