    Absolutely agree about those hellebores Chicky ...... some of the loveliest I've seen.

    I wonder if a daphne would be happy here ... and where could I find room for one image

    See original post

     It sounds as if our back garden would suit it and I had some garden vouchers for my birthday ... but where can I put it ................

    Thanks Chicky.  Always interesting to see what babies you get from promiscuous plants.

  • Anyone know what this is please?

    I believe it to be an Argyranthemum but as you can see it is large actualy about 2 Mts around and 1.5 Mts in height. it is in a very sheltered position facing south east, and I'm very tempted to take some softwood cuttings in the spring and some semi-hardwood cuttings of non-flowering shoots later on.

  • Lizzie I have just taken a look and yes I think that is it amazing image that someone only ask nine days ago.

    Its in a small boarder at the entrance to our building unfortunately the rest of the boarder looks very poor a few very scrawny lavenders and a couple of very sad looking evergreens, I might ask the landlords if I can do something about it introduce some summer colour.
