    Aloha everyone,

    I've just struggled my way through all these posts since I was on here earlier! :phew: :heehee:

    The plant is definitely Cineraria and not Stachys. We have loads of both in our garden. The Stachys is so rampant that we're always digging it up and giving it away (just wrapped in paper) to families with young children - except when we have our open garden and then we sell pots of it.

    I've been working hard at tidying up some of the lawn edges and plants/weeds/moss in the first couple of feet along those edges. Filled a wheelie bin yesterday but the beds don't look much different :sad:

    Keep well :biggrin:

    Aloha!

      Hope everyone is well this morning. A bit of a mixed bag of weather today, so will plan accordingly nearer the time.

      Couldn't do as I planned yesterday as hubs went out in the afternoon and I discovered all the phone handsets were off their docking stations and very low in battery power. I didnt want to chance taking one with me to the greenhouse as reception there can be iffy at times and I definitely didn't want to miss the jab call up from my Dr.....didn't happen though.:sad:

      So...... seed sowing hopefully is on todays agenda.:fingers crossed:

      Safe keeping everyone.:spinning:

            Good morning everyone, hope all is well with you all .
            I know these aren't the same but yesterday we had a large brood....flock???....of Long Tailed Tits descend on our bird feeding station. So lovely to observe them, such beautiful little creatures.

            Similar to @shiney really, it's going to once again be a case of doing what we can when we can and dodging the rain today.

            Never mind it will soon be Spring!!!

            Make the most out of wherever your day has in store for you ....keep safe.

                    Hi all my friend, weather is grey but dry here today, I’m back in work now and can’t wait to get back to our new home, we’ve finally got the tv and phone connected which took a while due to virgins sending us bundles of wiring and boxes and when we rang for help it tells you to ring later due to too many phone calls :wallbanging: anyway we are all sorted out now, looking forward to a dry weekend to get stuck into the garden :spinning: have a lovely afternoon all :dbgrtmb:
