Hey Gardengirl, no flooding has occurred happily, this is it's second winter and I've dug all the trenches I want to now, so hopefully it's cured. There was standing water elsewhere on the plots last year but I got away with it 😉 I'm still working on raising the soil levels which was phase 2 of the anti flood plan but am happy that it hasn't flooded (yet) and I haven't sent the water onto another plot.
Hampshire Hog, I'd say it's easier to count blackbirds when they're bouncing around but I don't think it is🤔
The one at the back is pandanifolium Physic Purple, on the right venustum and left eburneum.
Not all eryngium do well in my garden, at least the smaller fancy coloured ones, but I've had agavifolium and yuccifolium doing well for a few years now in heavy and sometimes very wet soil so thought I'd try some different types in the same area. (And hope for the best).
My cat Juba had a reaction to his annual vaccine. He was already at my vets but due to new year I had to take him to an emergency vet so he could stay on fluids and be monitored. Brought him home yesterday morning and he is eating better and can walk properly again, still a bit lethargic.

Edit, sorry if anyone saw that line of emoji's, I was seeing what some of the others turned into.

I'm off to the emergency vets shortly, hope everyone else has a better time 😊
edited to add... Ive just found the spikey ones in google images. Very different to my bog standard ones.

It never rains does it?
