    Thanks Verdun,  Lord Bargain! image

    By the way, any planting combos come to mind with my shiny new Salvia Guaranitica? 

    Oranges are looking very pleasing but I have yet to see this plant grow,  no matter what the label says, I have to see it in situe and really want to get away from keep moving things wrongly placed. 

    One question for anyone, why have I been looking two years for hakonechloa at GCs to no avail ?

    Because that would be too tricky for most GCs W'song - most of 'em couldn't spell it for a start  image I'm lucky that the nursery I use has lots of grasses. Mine is starting to put on  a lot more growth now that it's settled in. If you want it and can't get it, I'm sure I could cut a wodge and send it to you at some point.

    Been out and cut grass and done a few jobs while the rain stayed off. Have  to go and get a few things now though  image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Been dull and miserable all day in S.Yorks 17C max. Dark rain clouds an hour ago decided to drop a few big blobs and that's our lot. image

    Don't cut the grass Fairy!  Or at least the tricky item to spell image

    I wouldn't want to put you to any trouble image plus postage would be the cost of one 

    I'll go mail order as big as I can if they are slow to establish image

    It's just started to pour and next doors kids are playing in it image then again, I garden in the normal stuff but wear a waterproof

    Shouldn't really advertise but used a new product today from a numerological brand sold by our well known UK superstore chemist. Without my Boots on! I've just added Intensively Moisturising Body Serum after my bath and I've never been more impressed!  Wow, my skin feels amazing image

    Wish it would pour here. Dordogne is turning brown.

    Hope the locust left enough for you and OH Rbimage.  My foot is improving but still can't drive or it cramps up.  I was leaning on the SM trolley like an old woman with a zimmerimage.  The weeds are taking advantage but I swear at them from the windowimage

    Winter is it really that good or does it just get 7 out of ten?image.

    Hope it kept raining for you once the taps were closed Topbirdimage.
