Bit cold to sleep in the garden PD (enjot the weeding though!)
I think I've saved the cannas but not sure yet, they are quite damp so have removed the worst bits, roots seem ok just the bulby bits.
Taken cuttings from margarete, which is usually dead by now, nothing to loose AND it's started flowering again! Cuttings now snuggling on the window sill alongside the brugmansia from FB (still just looking like a stick Fb is it ok?).
Cheeky and Grumpy arguing about which will flower first!
The name of the little pink flowers is driving me mad, cant find the label but quite a long word beginning with 'O' ! Anyone? It's my fave at the moment as it has flowered happily all through winter.
Love the little statues Mrs Garden Can't help with the flower name I'm afraid, maybe in a few years when I'm an expert The only one I know beginning with O and quite long is Osteospermum and it isn't that

Happy birthday to your OH!
Tracey - not just rewarding - great fun!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Wahay. I've just had a male siskin on the niger seed feeder.
First one for this garden. we don't expect to see them as there are not many conifers around(apart from the ubiquitous leylandii)
Mr and Mrs Mallard seem to have departed for their married quarters on the canal or river.
Morning all. Feeling slightly green this morning - think i'm making up for the chocolate Lily isn't eating
.
Anyway, looking forward to this weekend. Got plenty of seeds to plant!
Pink stripes Dove would certainly get you noticed
I'm hoping my snowdrops will be here by weekend so I can get them in
Panda, happy birthday to OH, sorry I must have missed you post mentioning it
I'm hoping mine will too Tracey. No idea how long post will take. So used to most things being tracked these days I guess!
Morning all
Dull, but very mild here, just watching a marauding gang of long tailed tits on the nut feeder, must be a dozen, they are so funny.
Feeling very sore after last few days in the garden, so an easy day planned, probably some horizontal weeding.
Have a good day everyone, especially the workers.

Hope you're all well, esp lilys friend.
Waiting patiently....

Don't go mad Mrs Garden, try Erodium pelargonifolium.
That's nice
