What had you in mind @luciusmaximus

 

Looking around Garden Centres for Clematis namely Princess Diana and Princess Kate.

 

These do both mate

Clematis Princess Diana - Princess Diana Clematis

Clematis texensis Princess Kate

 

Very nice Lucius

 

The pump arrived today and after a bit of consideration I decided it would be best utilized as a bird fountain. So, one large plastic bowl ( actually my bread and cake making bowl, but largest I have ), a few rocks, small piece of driftwood and water and it was done. Newly fledged Sparrow gave it the seal of approval . There is a story to this but I'll put it in Jobs Today section.

 

Nice one Lucius no messing and i bet you loved the seal of approval

 

My ferns and Fatsia Spider's Web arrived today.

 

Nice and healthy Pushkin

 

Really good Ebay seller.
She even allowed me to pick the ferns I wanted and one wasn't even on her list.

 

Well if you get someone like that to deal with your best keeping with her...it's like my hubby he gets my e-cig tanks off a lady on there and if I get any faulty with no hesitation she just replaces them and alerts him if she's away on certain times

 

Are we allowed a link @Pushkin please, we may want to support her also, as its a fern I'm after and a @Gail_68 states , they all look very healthy.

 

Setting off early to a Garden Centre 50 miles away which has been getting good reports just for a "looky see"...probably come away with something I'm sure...I need some more compost and a length of thick Bamboo post to make a new Japanese style water spout for the pond area. Miracle Gro granular food would be a good idea also..and I need a hen (ornament) to match the cockrel on the bar area...Vivid Arts do some lovely lifelike pieces.

 

Today I took the plunge and bought the heuchera purple palace.



I want it to go here somewhere but I'm not entirely sure where. I shall leave it in its pot until I'm ready. If I'M going to try to plant a sempervivium or two in the rocks then then barrel will probably have to be pushed back a touch.

G.

PS The geum are not in flower. Is it normal for there to be a gap between flowering. Until recently it was flowering continuously.

 

My bargain for today -

Bromeliad Blue Rain including pot. Was £15. Purchased today for 75p !

 

blimey that is a bargain Kazza
