Greetings,

I would guess you are Brian's brother?  He was going to put us in contact
with each other.  (I am the guy that gave him some variegated Tulbaghia and
Agapanthus to plant at his zoo).

My contact number is 083 463 1983.
I am at Camperdown where I have about 1,5 million bulbs.
Regards
Greg
