Ooh err missus - shrivelled garters Could be worse I suppose. It could be a moist russet. I should really just go now... Morning early birds/afties Pat if you're dropping in You can have some of our 'moistness'. We have plenty to share in the next few days. Think you're getting some tomorrow @Dovefromabove, if the forecast's correct. I could pop down @Yviestevie - I dont think I'll be cutting my grass anyway. Hope you're having a lovely holiday.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Had a great day at Sussex Prairie Garden yesterday. Will post pics on the garden visits thread.....but here is a taster
The plant sale was good too.....picked up a couple of echinacea Southern Belle (the only echinacea to survive in my garden for more than a couple of years .....its now in its sixth season and still going strong ......have been looking for more for ages), some achillea Perrys White (seen and admired at Wisley), a couple of tall white thalictrums (I love the purple ones, so thought I’d ring the changes), and an old zinc watering can for a very reasonable price 😀😀😀. All in all a very good haul 👍🏻
Good haul indeed @chicky, and lovely pic. Why do you think the echinaceas don't do well? I'd have thought you would have good conditions for them. I have a white thalictrum but it's never done terribly well. I gave it another chance, because I'd had to move it, but it's on a final warning. I'm contemplating a nursery visit for a couple of bright achilleas for the hotter bed. Perhaps tomorrow as it's to be wet, and it would help avoid doing h****work.

Morning @Fairygirl 😊 my phone says we’ll get rain on Wednesday and again on Friday ... that’s coz we’ve got an old friend coming to stay Thurs - Sat ... we had planned to visit Cromer but it looks damp there on Friday ... 💡 Southwold looks clear tho.
I had just been telling OH about Michael Palin and the kakapo when he said to me ‘Did you know that Gary Numan is older than Gary Oldman?’
The things I have to contend with in the morning 🙄 🤣
