If you're in The Netherlands in May why not drop by and visit the Bos and Burcht Fair in Oostvoorne! It's all about garden plants and the Green Life! The Dutch Hosta Society will be joining in as well! You can find us, amongst the other 100 paticipants, at our Hosta decorated table! http://www.bosenburchtfair.nl/

Remember this photo last month?
A month later! Spring is looking great in The Netherlands!
Looking forward to learning the name of this Hosta!
And just as the snow has stopped in Chilliwack, B.C., Canada

There are already a few Hostas at a local garden centre!

It was great to see you at the Forum, Wageningen University !

We had an early viewing of the "Tulip in Time" exhibit!
Were shown the Special Collections and Hosta prints!
Oldest book is dated 1490!

Toured the University Library!
Magazines! One could spend hours, even days there!

The presentation by Dr. Ir. Gera van Os about soil health and the different factors that influence soil suppressiveness was very informative! Great power point slides! I was too busy listening, understanding and enjoying the presentation to take pictures! There were great hand outs though! The Annual General Meeting took place after lunch. Then there was the optional " After Study Day" social with snacks and refreshments! Hope everyone arrived home safely!

See you June 23rd for a garden tour ?!
