    @Hostafan1 you’re probably right about the splitting, Day Lillies are the same after about three years they give up flowering.

    Would you like a chunk @Lyn? (Please note the use of the highly technical , botanical term "chunk". Elitist? Moi?)

    I certainly would like a chunk please, don’t forget I still have your Black n Blues here, and some Neon Pink coming on well.

    Thank you all for your good luck wishes.

    That's an exotic looking plant.


    @Dovefromabove's? 
    I'll happily dig a piece for you and Dove can collect it next season when she's down this way.
    It bulk up very quickly. I suspect mine needs splitting, hence poor flowering this year.
    Of course I will  :)

    A friend on the Cookery forum I'm a member of has just posted this photo ... his neighbour had a new lawn laid two days ago 

    Last night the local  badgers popped around for supper ...

    They need a water scarecrow and some peanuts left somewhere else to keep the badgers off that.

    The thing is H and his neighbours love the badgers ... they put peanuts out for them most evenings, so they're not at all shy ... so ...............  :/

    I shouldn’t laugh but......
    thats heartbreaking, bloody badgers,  they could stay awake tonight and lay in wait and scare them off, they don’t like people to know they are about.  I wouldn’t leave any food about.
