Hello each, have just had a lovely visit from Gardengirl and mum, called in on their way to local Nursery. Brought me a sweet little house for my prairie garden which the local insects will quickly take over and love. Pictures will follow. Gg left with some plants and crocosmia corms for the station garden, which they look after pretty much without any other help!!!
Got a refund on the cartons of cranberry that wouldn't open, they didn't have anymore of the light version I wanted ! Not a result as I bought three because they were half price. Assistant manager didn't see the funny side when I asked if they had been half price because the tops were faulty
Woody I have had a load of crocomsia that I've dug up and I hoping I've seen the last of them, Gg would have been welcome to mine
Woody I inherited my clump of bog standard orange. I planted Lucifer at previous house and loved the vibrant red, moved after two years so didn't see if it spread. Do you find Lucifer less invasive than the orange one or do you work to contain it?
KEF these are lucifer which in small quantities are worth giving a go?
for me lucifer a spreader but nice,very nice except foliage is a martyr to uncontrollable-at least by me-spider mites. internet plant shopping. managed to stop myself after ordering a climbing rainbows end and lonicera graham thomas for spring delivery. the thomas could be the very best lonicera.
Haven't grown Lucifer for some time so not sure how it will spread, but have planted it where it will be easy to dig up and split. Gg will be able to take more of a risk at the station, perhaps.

Went out in the rain and edged the lawns, must be mad.
