I did that, eventually. They told me that Nicklow has died, very unfortunate; and that they took what seed was available of this and tried to save the variety, but failed, as the seed was of poor quality. Maybe he had not been able to maintain it for some time.

I do have some old seed of this but if Johnny's couldn't save the strain I very much doubt that I can, their resources for this are better than mine.
