    To be honest Wonky, we'll take as many as you don't want ... but didn't want to be greedy if you have a purpose for them  ;)

    Yes.  And the local form of bindweed - small, pink flowers and horizontal ambitions but it will climb if it must.

    Lovely and warm and sunny here so far today so there was a little bit of tidying at the far side of the pond done. The problem came when we started to turn over the soil and kept finding plants that are still in hibernation! Two hostas and some Crocosmia. 
    I had a donation of a giant pot containing flag iris, toadflax a tiny fir tree which had been grown up from a whisker and some red campion. The red campion liked it and I mean really liked it! Everything was completely swamped and squashed so they've all been rescued, with much ado, and potted up individually. The RC now has a giant pot all to itself until it gets moved to the bank. I'll get a stack of plantlings from it so that'll take care of another bit! This bank is going to be visible from space at this rate! 
    I too was wondering about Marion. She is indeed an inspiration and I think most people read her Happy Marion thread. I hope she's well.

    I know. It's great Joyce. I'd given up on my hostas. Not so much as a pip until about Wednesday!  :o

    That’s strange Joyce. My hands and feet have been cold today as well. My nose too. 
    In bed now with a new book and electric blanket. Much better.
