Planted (well OH did) Clematis Crystal Fountain into jewel border to go up a pre-existing obelisk - did have to move obelisk to do it though. Also planted a climbing fuchsia, it has been in a large pot by obelisk for ages and roots were in the soil so should be ok.
Then I tried to catch up with feeding shrubs and roses, did about half Hope to finish tomorrow,
Would a Gaura manage in more dappled light than full sun, full sun most of day?
Im worse than ever for being absent minded Winter, have even dug things up to move them, then totally forgot and left it out of the ground! Drives me crackers! wish i was organised like you!
Had a wander round garden, far too chilly to do anything today brrrrr. A couple of hostas are just trying to poke through, foxgloves leaves are growing nicely but clematis all look rather sorry for themselves.
I asked my mother today how her group 2 clematis arch was doing and she said she couldn't see anything yet so I asked her if there was any leaves at all and she said no, nothing so I asked what had she done to care for the plant over winter and she said it died so she cut off all the brown tangly stems to tidy it up
I wish they would let me supervise their garden but I keep offering and they keep declining

Thanks for the advice Liri, and I'd have a good mind to complain about the sticky labels except that I love all the plants that got stuck to you
Well, I look beautiful now
Just had my hair done
You look fab Panda
I'm very chuffed to see that my Clematis alpina Pamela Jackman is covered with big fat buds - one of my favourites
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

I think we need to see pics of these clematis ladies
Happy hairdo Panda
Oh flip! I took cuttings of bowles mauve, cant remember what ive done with them...for goodness sake!
I put things in special places around the house like papers or my favourite scissors and then forget but never with gardening
Even my clematis cuttings have all been identified sans labels
YAY! Beks......re seeds
