  • Hello all image Exhausted from queuing for car park (40 mins at 9.30am on a Monday!), Christmas shopping, hair cut, lunch with friend and then more shopping. When I got home OH cooked a pizza and made me a large  G&T.  I am now on the sofa with my feet up and I am not going to move ......................... image


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.





  • Well I have enjoyed the first programme really wanted to watch it today on tv - the new garden show, Just have to sort out recording tomorrow's show and the rest of the days of the week one by one as not enough room on one dvd disk.

    Really like the way this programme was shown really informative, less rubbish up the station now there is a flower bed with plants - gardening is so helpful and enjoyable for people to look at

    OK , Verdun, while you are here. Today a bought a Helleborus niger, and a H. sternii silver dollar. Both have flower buds on. As the silver dollar has nice silver leaves, do I leave them on or cut them off?

    Hi all, busy weekend and not up to speed with the posts, but I'll do my best, apologies for those missed.

    FG - general comments seem to be to whip off the h leaves, says she who is yet to love them...

    Stacey- loved pic of lo and tree.

    Missed pics commented on about diving and chickys tree.

    Hope all fellow stressheads are on the up! Strange when you have a run of good days then for no reason at all have a few rubbish ones.

    Watched new garden revival programme which gave a wonderful boost to the mood, so much so that it inspired me to change my gardening ways, well for now just inspired to create new thread dedicated to it !!!

    Enjoy the rest of the evening.

    Fidget - don't cut the leaves off the niger - i think it is only the oriental hybrids you do that to. Not sure about the silver dollar, as not sure what sort it is.

    Oh chicky, such a lot to learn - so a hellebores not just a hellebore then, maybe if I end up liking the ones I've got I might (just might) look into different and seemingly exciting varieties for next year.
