give-away


some of you asked us where to get this book. well, it's not for sale. when you buy a plant in holland you get a code wich you can enter on this website. everyday they give away 500 books (untill 14/11). it's available in dutch and english. since we got some books, we thought to organise a give-away. to enter just leave a comment before next week friday 22/10. good luck to all of you!
