Thanks @Papi Jo couldn't work out how to turn it around. The old log was in a pub beer garden and they were going to get rid of it. Hubby and SIL carried it to the house. I seared the inside with a blow torch and it's been used as a planter ever since. It looks like it's about to fall apart but is really, really hard.

My hellebores - Pink Frost. I don't have much luck with hellebores so I've kept these in their pot and think I will continue to do so...
Crocus - again never much luck with them in the ground but I'm really pleased with how they've done in the pot this year.
Rhododendron (not quite) Christmas Cheer - the first rhododendron (of 7) to come up in the garden and one of my favourites.
