Re: Jörg Piltz RIP
Very nice memories from visits at Joerg, and Brigittes place.
So sad to see the "old" collectors disappear.
I used to have plants of G. pilziorum. I think I "need" to grow this again!

I have enjoyed my visits to his collection and sales. His collection was extraordinary. I'm very sorry to here that he has gone.
