    I have heard the cleome is a good doer but not heard of the lupin.  Yes it does make for added interest when the plant is new to you.  Both of those could make a good show as well as added scent.  I have a duck pond out on the kitchen patio. I think it must have rained all afternoon as I watched the film on BBC2!

    Hi Marion, it's just started raining here and gone very wind, hope it doesn't ruin my new plants, my hanging baskets are swinging slightly image

    I think Monday is going to be horrific when storm Katie arrives.flumpy.  You might be safer to take down your hanging baskets.

    Good thinking Marion, I think I may hang them in my greenhouse for now : ), it seems to have calmed down a little now : )

    Yes Marion, it absolutely poured down here this afternoon. I was working in the conservatory at the time. It was so loud I couldn't hear my radio!

    I'm out to lunch tomorrow with family. Hope you have a good day with your visitors.

    Not so good weather now.  Colder and warnings for high winds and heavy rains and high waves on the coast.  Brrrr. But white tulips are flowering in the conservatory and freesias with three inch leaves already.  I shall make some spring bouquets as Easter presents from the garden and conservatory.  it is lovely to be able to say "All my own work".
