Colchicum 'Dick Trotter'
28th September 2012
An distinctive cultivar with very silky pinkish tepals that are broad and well rounded.
Naturally, I wasn't here when it opened and by the time I got back it was just some pink tatters on the bark mulch.
There's always next year.
Named after the father of Elizabeth Parker-Jervis who ran PJ Nursery in Longworth with her husband John for many years. They produced a wide range of unusual plants and specialised
in an extensive collection of Colchicum.
