Dove - the pond looks a massive task. It'll be worth it in the end
PD- sounds like you are out the doghouse then
Stacey - you have been busy. Hope you don't ache too much in the morning. My arms are sooo sore from edging the borders yesterday. Obviously gardening muscles!!!
Stacey- don't hold out much hope for the Sophora. The person who bought the house wasn't a gardener. The Camellia that we left is brown and has been for the last year.
Morning all.... Well I'm a happy bunny one of the thalictrum I have planted had a shoot coming on it ( the other one still nothing) when I looked this morning 5 other shoots appeared on it yey!!! One astrantia up the other nothing.... Now I am a patient person but grrrrrr luckily if they are dead I have replacements for both of them so!!!
Morning all - work beckons. OH has the day off, which makes getting going even harder! Stacey - i am still waiting for some of my thalictrum and astrantias to show - but not given up hope yet!
What a wonderful weekend it was - Lily, alli - hope your aching backs are better this morning. the newest of my hellebores did a bit of wilting in yesterday's heat - but a bucket of water and a good nights rest and they are standing tall again. (don't know why that made me think of aching backs)
dove - what news of the pond? And Tracey - dare i mention GH??
Got some pots of Erythroniums at the GC yesterday.Old Aberdeen, Spindlestone,Susannah and Knightshayes.A Trillium Kurabayashii and several pots of flowering bulbs.Granddaughter visiting Friday now 2 1/2 and will introduce her to planting ,thought it better to at least get something that she can see the result of.
Chicky - re pond - OH is at work today and is going to ask if he can borrow an axe from his boss - I'm waiting for our builder to contact me about a quote for decorating and some other bits and bobs so I might just get him to lend a hand too - he likes doing stuff in the garden
