    I'm back from Newcastle, the M1 was shut near chesterfield, so A1 and A64 nightmare, but eventually we got home.

    Very tired. early night tonight I think.

    Stacey - i had just done my own googling and concluded wesselton - and your picture confirms - like little fairy skirts ...

    problem trees had their tops removed today.  OH was here and says they look ok considering - guess i will see in the daylight tomorrow.  Most important thing is i can now stop worrying about them crashing down everytime the wind goes over 10mph.

    came home to find a pack of 50 free tete a tete bulbs.  Need to decide what to do with them.  Will probably plant up in pots for this year, and put into the ground next autumn - good idea???

  • If you plant them Chicly what is to stop them doing their best to flower by early Summer... go for it, what fun.image

    Woody - would you vote for planting in pots now or straight in the ground?

    seems to be an evening of votes - next thing you know we will be demanding a referendum on something .......

    Not that you asked me (I was having my supper image) but I'd get them in the ground provided it's not too waterlogged.  Wonderful essay on planting clematis here  http://www.howellsonclematis.co.uk/Pages/Gnews13.html  image

  • Right husband had a look and voted montanii which I really like and think will brighten the north facing wall and add a nice scent to the garden something which I'm missing.... So he bought me it ( and I sneaked a Uvularia grandiflora in as well!!!!)
