WHAT'S LOOKING GOOD IN JANUARY 2018

After some persuasion from forum members, I planted a couple of hellebores back in November - I take it all back, they're stunning




Camellia is also flowering:

 

Are indoor bulbs allowed? Here are my hyacinths in glasses on the kitchen windowsill, and you can at least see the back garden through the window! Spotted a couple of snowdrops in flower out there this morning but too cold a wind is blowing to go and photograph those.

The hyacinths are a multiflora variety called Anastasia, new to me and I am pleased with how they have turned out - even if the one to the right is lagging behind a bit. They have a slight fragrance, not nearly as strong as say Delft Blue - which I actually find a bit too much in a kitchen!

Incidentally they were not bought as prepared for forcing, just ordinary ones from Lidl which I then stuck in the veg drawer of the fridge for a couple of months.

 

@shiney Give me your Address mate pleazzzz and i'll have the other half whip around with a for just one of your grasses

 

@shiney Not to worry on that score about spelling mistakes as i'm getting sick and tied of editing myself

 

@shiney Thanks for the lovely offer but I was having the crack with you but your garden does look stunning and those grasses are beautiful

 

This plants not doing to bad it flowered once about 3yrs back and the leafs kept falling off the stem, so it was cut back right to the shootings and it's still going well through this cold weather ....can't tell you the name as tag was removed as perusal

​

 

I'm not commenting @shiney and getting myself hanged

 

I keep them in check

 

@wiseowl no good mate just a few good back handers are better

 

I was on about @"M" being kept in check ...I totally agree @wiseowl on the money exchange
