WENDY WALSH HELLEBORE PRINTS

The Ranunculaceae Society, on behalf of all its members, would like to congratulate renowned botanical artist Wendy Walsh on the upcoming occasion of her 90th birthday, in April 2005.

Wendy WalshTo celebrate this wonderful milestone, Wendy has issued a limited edition set of 4 Hellebore prints, details from which can be seen above. We are honoured that Wendy chose to officially launch this set at a Ranunculaceae Society event - the lecture by Harold McBride in the Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, on 8th February, 2005. In her introduction to the evening, our chairman, Dr. Mary Toomey, personally extended her best wishes and congratulations to Wendy on behalf of all members.

We would now like to take this opportunity to bring these prints to the attention of members and friends who were unable to attend on the night. This issue is limited to 600 of each of the 4 hellebores. Each single print, signed and numbered, costs €100, with the set of 4 available for the special price of €320. To order, please contact William or Lesley Fennell on +353 (0)59 8623148 or e-mail wfennell@iol.ie

Photo Gallery

Our photo gallery has more than doubled in size with photos generously contributed by Harold McBride, Ian Lang, Billy Moore and Ton Hannink. The gallery now contains some unusual specimens of Anemone, Clematis, Hellebore, Pulsatilla, Ranunculus and Trollius.

All contributions to the gallery would be gratefully received. Please send your photos to the webmaster.

Links

As well as our expanded photo gallery, we have also begun a links page. It is in the very early stages of development at the moment but the aim is to build it into a collection of quality links related to all things Ranunculaceae.

Again, if you have or you know of a good Ranunculaceae-related website, please let us know.
