    Look forward to your pics of Great Dixter Scroggin

    Naughty Pandaimage.  That green wall is amazing.  Wish there were lots more of them aboutimage.

    Your biscuits look really good Ggimage.  Glad you had a good day at the show and made some nice purchasesimage.  One of the mallow seeds you sent me is already in flower and is just like the picture of it's parentimage.  The others are coming on but much smaller.  The lupins should be good for planting out next year - thank youimage

    Jo - technically they're really both crocosmia, but the common orange one is known as montbretia while the posh proper varieties get called crocosmia image

    Had a beautiful day's walking - Glen Fyne (Beinn Bhuidhe) Lesley. Don't think it would have done your foot much good  image  Not a  spit of rain. I arranged that specially and sent it all down south instead  image

    This was my view while having lunch

    'Fyne' is most definitely what it was image 

    Feet up now. Should have something to eat but can't be bothered. Any of that shortie left Ggirl? image

     

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



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

    Hey all. just wanted to share a whoop whoop - the two mature trees I planted last year are showing signs of new growth. They were so expensive and hard work to plant i was worried about losing them. So I'm whooping!
