Ive got one plant over 5ft tall. Pink centre with pale yellow outer. Another is a white single but with yellow leaves.there could be some more yet to open.
Evening everyone, thought I'd try and pop by earlier in the hope th to so ex people might still be up
I hope you've all had good days......I need to check the forecast for weekend for the NW, my veg patch is calling and I need to get my fruit covered.
I don't know if anyone will remember me posting about my failed gooseberry bushes last year ar, well I never got round to doing anything with them apart from having a few stern words that this year was last chance saloon - it worked and they are FULL of fruit, so pleased I didn't prune them or anything!!
Hi OL - i'm still around ....well just. Great news on the goosegogs .....I'm sure plants respond to those "you've got ONE more year" threats
Great news about mum Liri. Carnegie Hall .....we once stayed at a hotel just opposite. We had a sneakypeek in the lobby at the decor ....very impressive. Will you be in the audience Lizzie, or supporting in the wings? i've heard wonderful things about the new skywalk gardens in NY (i think its called something like that) - will you have time for sightseeing?
Hello Chicky and Lily Great to 'see' you both. I must admit my garden seems to be thriving on neglect which is just as well really! My free Geums from last year look great
DD it won't be just "popping"! Quite complicated with all the flights, hotels etc. Someone posted the choir on Utube and they were invited to sing, Faure's Requiem, together with some other choirs. They will have to practice together when we get there. There will be a Gala dinner too, evening dress. Choir's secretary is arranging a boat trip with dinner too. I'm a little worried by the skyscrapers, I'm really a country bumpkin, might have to escape to sit in Central Park! We'll be there about a week, but as we are flying from Heathrow and staying with relatives a couple of nights first we'll be away about 10 days.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
LIzzie, sounds absolutely super. I was talking to a lady at your Open Day who said she was going, great compliment for the choir.
Have a last day in the garden today before another mad day tomorrow, how does this happen??? Horseriding taxi service in the morning and airport duty afternoon and then houseful of guests (paying) arriving in time for dinner in the evening, then Monday houseful of guests (not paying) arriving for a week.

Chicky, I think I'll be in the audience. I'll have to look into those gardens.
