    Replenished the bird food larder yesterday and bought a couple of these little plastic bargains they come complete with seed for around £3.50 each from B&Q...

      Today I bought these.

      20180708_200202.jpg

      I would have preferred the coleus to have been all of the same colour. I am hoping both if these plants will be able to grow in my stacker pots. I was thinking of salvia at the bottom, coleus in the middle and the other thing (I can't remember it's name for now) in the top.

                      I bet these are hard to find, as I've just been looking and nothing is showing :sad:

                      We dropped on with those lions...hubby went to buy a part for the car and there was units near by and I saw one and several other statues outside..we took a look and a couple of chaps was just starting up but adding bases to them...we thought they would be light but it takes two people to lift them and they're larger than the pic's show :)

                          I don't have many Ornaments in the Garden, maybe three, and rarely see any I like, but I saw this in a recycling/antique place near me and thought "Yes"

                          Meet "Rusty Rat"..........
