It's amazing how things like this can spiral isn't it?
I have a passion for bulbs, and lots of the ones I coveted I could only get seed of, not the actual bulbs, of course I had so many germinate and grow, that I started off selling the odd few, just to pay for more seeds, pots etc, a few years down the road I have a thriving rare bulbs business that sells all over Europe.
Best job in the world, will never make me rich, but pays enough to feed and expand the passion.
