    Aww, thank you Kitty, that's really kind of you to let me know the sizes. So helpful. 
    I remember how pretty they looked when you first posted them last year. Sorry I couldn't remember it was you who made them. 
    Thanks again, really kind x

    My pleasure to post the info. Looked for last years posts via the search bar but can't see a reference.? I'm sure I put pics on of the whole thing from start to finish.

    Good luck with yours Lily, I just bang in a load of plug sized small annuals like you would a hanging basket. 
    As with most things I do it's a case of making it up as I go along with whatever I have at hand.😂

    Rosie & LB, must be a dodgy year for peonies, mine hasn't flowered either. It was lovely last year.

    Meant to say, I'll make a note of all sizes and try and download the photo of the way they are arranged. Thanks again!

    LB, it was me who asked about the tipsy pots the other day........ Sorry if Kitty or  someone answered before.
    Sun's coming out now, but it's still chilly

    One of my peonies is in flower, but the other two aren't  yet. Perhaps it was all that rain we had😕 

    Yes, I can remember you put different  photos on here Kitty, but I can get the gist ......i hope 🤞🤣🤣  with this one. 😉

    Found this in my cloud. There's another one that I may have to try again in another post. It won't let me put both on. 😡

    Morning all (just about).  I have one peony in flower and buds on the other three, they seem to be doing OK.  Everything seems to be on track this year, a few of the first rose buds opened a bit weird but other than that...
    I'm going out in a minute to plant some cosmos, ammi and other annuals in the borders.  Haven't got anything else planned
    Sorry to hear Chey has been so poorly hope he improves soon and that they sort out his health issues.
    Like the tipsy pots Kitty, might have a go at that but would need to  buy some pots and get my hands on some copper pipe, I suppose we might have some in the cellar, will get hubby to investigate.  Enjoy you day everyone.

    Hi from Kingswinford in the West Midlands

    Thank you kitty. Have you pushed the pipe into the ground a bit to make it more stable?  Roughly how long is the pipe please.
    Quite fancy one by the garage.......when we can arrange for the window to be knocked out and a door put in.

    Afternoon everyone, prepped meatballs for dinner & hung the wet things out but not feeling the enthusiasm for much today. 
    Love those tipsy pots Kitty, it’s such a clever idea I’d never think of anything like that,
    Rosie ooh that will be good bread Brioche I like the sound of that. The bee is still working on the 5th tube I think the cooler weather has slowed progress, 
    Im sure you’ll be able to create something good Lily, 
    Think I’ll go for a walk, have a good afternoon.
