\n
My new life is as a “visiting onion researcher” at the Ringve Botanical Gardens in Trondheim where I’m developing an Allium garden to be officially opened later in the summer! One of the perks is to have access to collections in other botanical gardens on an exchange basis. I visited the Oslo Botanical Gardens last week\u00a0 (June 2019) and I was given a spade and given permission to take a few of whatever onions I wanted! Not having accession data available I took a few of most onions I found. On the way out of the gardens with bags of onions and rucksack with various Allium victorialis sticking out of the top, a couple approached me and the man says “Det var en god fangst!” (That’s a good catch!) ;)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I now have the accession data and am sorting out which ones are interesting enough to keep!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I’ve also promised to correct some of the mistakes as several were clearly wrongly labelled!
