    So if that is so Nutcutlet and those Wallflower seedlings o from the the plant ie fresh into the compost and then my other thread are only that big if I sowed some now straight........

    oh dear the Drambueie has got me...I will start again if I may...

    So if that is so Nutcutlet, and those Wallflower seedlings are only that big (the ones I took a photo of in the other thread) surely if I sowed some fresh seed now in compost then wacked them fast into the greenhouse they would catch up...or is that wishful thinkin'...???

    Me thinks I'm better at makin' coffee cake than this gardening lark...

    It has flowered and mine is a pieris, Vesuvius? Small thing but nice.

    Wet, the ducks on the pond have their brollies out. image

    You could, but you've got a head start there. You can line up them up a seed tray. 

    Do both, you may or may not have success. That's how you learn. I've been at it years and still make discoveries for myself or read things on this forum that I didn't know

    Not keen on too much variegation Verdun.

    And having lived all my life in very limey areas I tend to associate yellow with chlorosis (is that how you spell it?)

    and things are more yellow even if it's not deficient. I had Frances Mason and she was much yellower here than she was in the nursery

    I thought the first was a skimmia and the second a weigela so I wonder what  is it that distinguishes them?

  • nutcutletnutcutlet Posts: 27,441

    The shape and arrangement of leaves is quite distinctive for the skimmia.

    For the abelia it's the shiny leaves and their shape and the shape of the flowers
