    re " moving plants". If you look at the first photo, you'll see it's gradually being hidden under 2 large conifers, which is part of the reason I want it moved.

    I also want it to  close the view from the path leading from the terrace steps to the path by the pond. Neither the paths , nor the pond are on the cards for moving.

    It's going to be moved, some how , some day. ( little West Side Story moment just then )

    is it a wet day in the UK? 4 pages since I said good morning!

    Was very cold here, saw DD scraped ice off her car. Mine was in the garage so I didn't have to, but I was glad I'd put the GH heater on.

    Sunny and has warmed up a bit so out to do weeding.

    I sent you a PM too, punkdoc, but it wasn't that horrid one. I often agree with what you say on those controversial threads.

     There's another one, but I plan to trim up the lower rhododendron stems and get rid of the lonicera to reveal this one.

    Lizzie & Dove it's been chilly here now it is cold ! I've put the heating on. Rain at first and then drizzle on and off.

    Hoping it's no worse tomorrow as we have a team at mum's house reducing 6 Conifers by 2/3 rds. I know it as bit late re: birds and nesting but this is the first date we could have and they need doing. Mum has loads of other conifers, bushes & trees ..so soz birdiesimage

  • Hosta, when you've worked out how to move yours (safely and successfully) let me know because I have the same problem, although my rock is about 25 metres in the wrong place. imageimage

    West Side Story?  Careful, Hosta, or you'll become a cliche.image (how do you do accents?)

    Could it be a glacial erratic?  I still think I'd move the plants !

    Cold and wet in W Flanders.  Not been in the garden all day image
