Well went to Wisley today it was amazing a fantastic breakfast then a guided tour of the show followed by meeting the very lovely and amazingly beautiful Dame Penelope Keith at 76 years old she looked fantastic then lots of walking around looking and admiring the stunningly beautiful plants and shrubs
then coffee cake and tea, then more walking then finally running out of puff and off home I go, having had a wonderful day and getting some great ideas for my new garden
Today I only bought a pair of goat skin gloves cost £10.00.
all the plants normally get bought by the boss whilst at Chelsea flower show in fact I have around 20 chrysanthemums still in 4 inch pots along side the greenhouse doing nothing and I was told there are more plants on there way but I have no idea what they are and more importantly I have no where to plant them oh well there's always next year lucky me
Yep all Mums in little pots they will stay there till next year all I will do is provide cut flowers for the house as they flower, when the frost comes I will cut then back to around 8 inches high store in my green house over winter then hopefully pop in the garden next spring.
as I have said in a previous post I get plants presented to me purchased by the owners but I have no where to put them so that's why the mums are just lying in wait which is really sad
Update its now 40 varieties and 178 different plants
