Longleat - A WARNING TO EVERYONE

Right, so I'm being followed by a full-time forum stalker and a teenage girl that doesn't actually exist.

PERFECTLY NORMAL FOLLOWERS, THEN.

@Upsydaisy Fat Controller said this :-
'we linked this account with another that was banned from GC in the latter part of last year, for very similar behaviours'
so they could be the same person, both seem to have been deleted.

 

Thank you @JWK

 

Thanks to all admin for their vigilance in sorting this out.

 

All jokes aside, this kik messenger thing sounds like it's full of perverts and sickos, I feel glad I haven't got a child (especially a daughter) when I read about stuff like this...

This $1 Billion App Can't 'Kik' Its Huge Child Exploitation Problem

Thanks John.

 

Thanks Michael for the info.

 

I discovered from what JWK said that was deleted a few weeks ago so can't be the same, sorry, it was just a guess. I usually put 2 and 2 together and make 5 !

 

Perhaps she could be photo shopped out, looks like that's how she got there in the first place.
Then Nick will get a clearer view of the hostas.

 

Well done admin, obviously the question asked was to try and find out who was more likely to have a few bob in the bank! I have only just looked at this thread and immediately thought something was a bit amiss until reading further and seeing what had been discovered. Would not be surprised if the you know whats behind this are foreign as the child’s clothes don’t look like those worn by children here.
Nick re the Hostas. I grow a huge number and have Hostas very similar if not identical to those in the photo. People tend to only think of Hostas as foliage plants whereas, especially the plain green Hostas have very pretty ( some scented) flowers. My plain green leafed Hostas far out grow and flower more profusely than the variegated ones due to being able to photosynthesise much better than their variegated cousins.
Unfortunately I understand there is a national shortage of Hostas due to their slow growing nature and Covid encouraging over 3 million new gardeners! So their price is bound to rise.
If ever you are up my way you would be more than welcome to a good chunk of mine but we do not live close to each other. I would suspect most plain green Hostas which have not been too “ fiddled with” by the breeders will be vigorous and flower well. Also in my experience while Hostas prefer it damp I have green Hostas underneath a huge Cedrus Atlantica Glauca which is extremely dry and shaded. Ok they are not as happy as in other spots in the garden but cope extremely well as good ground cover. Few other plants would survive where they do.

 

@Nikolaos regarding Hostas have a look here Welcome to Bowdens

 

Aw, thanks for the kind offer @hailbopp, it's the thought I appreciate! Your post actually managed to reply to a question I hadn't even gotten round to asking yet, so I must congratulate you on your psychic abilities! I was thinking a variegated version of the ones in the photos might look even nicer but now I know they're not as floriferous I'll go with the plain green-leaved type if I find something similar.

Thanks again for all the info, always love finding out more about new genera!

Thanks very much for that link Nigel, always nice to know of a specialist grower with a large selection!
