Title: Wanted - Ransoms/Wild garlic and comfrey....
Post by: FiB on March 16, 2012, 09:14:10 am
Hi all, not sure when the best time to lift and divide the above is, but If any of you have any on your land, I would be eternally grateful.   I want to try and establish some wild garlic in my woods - cant find any locally (there may be a good reason for that, but Id like to try) and a comfrey patch.  Can swap seeds (see above post re pay it forward - still have cauli, cabbage, leeks and a few other seeds).   Thanks all, Love Fi :bouquet:

Boo, I'm in Bala North Wales (Just seen you are in lovely Fife)!  Happy to pay postage if you happen to be dividing (I imagine it would survive first class with a bit of damp tissue?).  Love fI

you'll have to wait until I can put my foot down again to dig some up! One step at the time - walking without crutches, driving, digging!  Only a matter of weeks  ::);D
