    That's lovely Bev, a real oasis. You've done so much with the space.

    Amazing but how on earth do you find time to look after it all? Must be endless watering, topping, weeding, repotting...what about vine weevil? Any problem with those? How do you reach everything and what do you do when you just have to have another plant? There must be a limit as to how much you can fit in surely?!

    Wow to all the pics.

    Bev, amazing all in pots. If you go on holiday, soz I'm unavailable for watering duty...

    It must take you ages. Have you ever counted how many pots you have?  After H grumbled at how many we have I thought of starting a thread asking how many people had. Won't do it, will just award you a gold medal now.

    Loads of spare space for more pots there that I can see: A few 'Spur' shelving rails screwed to the wall, some 12" brackets clipped in (all adjustable for varying height requirements) and some pieces of decking board & Hey Presto - loads more space!

    If you can't go outwards go upwards, though Bev might need to get planning permission to go higher than 2 metres! image

     Took a pic today of the 'Black Dragon' sunflowers I have which have huge buds about to open. They're meant to be dwarf but they're a good metre high. Looking forward to seeing them open up.

    PS - John- we have special nets for catching haggis. I'll send you one...

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



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