Also an iris lover. Have a bog standard blue jobbie out now, a clump of iris sibirica which will erupt in a month or so, and a happy clump of iris unguicularis which flowers through the winter. Never had much luck with bulb Dutch irises though.
And if anybody asks me to build a greenhouse for pupose sake! My reply would be! "I would rather eat my own children" Lol!! But it's done! Another big job out of the way!!! Thank God!! n what a day weatherwise to do it!! It's been Gorgeous!
@Wintersong, Need some fence staining doing! Got a spare brush if ya got a mo! Lol!!
@ Dean, I have the baby brother to your greenhouse, and hubby swore never again after building it! So worth it though.
@ Inkadog, respect to your friend! Wow!
@ Wintersong, beautiful pics as ever
Fabulous sunny day here in Pembrokeshire. Didn't do much in the garden, too busy trying to get as much washing done and out while the drying is free! I sowed more Lollo Rossa, Rocket and mixed leaf salad, and some pumpkins. I saved some seeds from a shop bought pumpkin last Hallowe'en after my plant failed, so I'm not sure how well they will do. Also sowed some Cat Grass to try to tempt Marmite to stay home a bit more, out of the neighbours' garden. Fingers crossed!
@Inkadog what an amazing lady your friend Zona is, hope Im as active at her age
@Wintersong, lovely pictures, the Euphorbia and Berberis compliment each other beautifully. If you hadnt written the name of the plants I would just be saying how lovely they looked. I actually sound as if I know what Im talking about now lol. Im so glad I joined this forum, have already learnt so much in just a few days. You definately 'have the eye' for it, well done.
Am now off to look at the video of Lilylouise's garden
