    Bought loads of plants over the last few days
    • Camellia x Williamsii hybrid (named but I can't remember at the momment)
    • Fromontedendron 'Tequila Sunrise'
    Both for just £5 each!
    • Variety of Penstemons
    • A couple of pink Gaura lindheimeri hybrids
    • Japanese anemone 'Wild Swan' a gorgeous white with blue reverse & 'Rotkappchen' really nice double pink
    • Oriental Poppy 'Royal Wedding, 'Corral Reef' & 'Patty's Plum'
    I also spotted some bargains in Morrisons today I picked up two 9cm pots of Hydrangea petiolaris which I'm intending to grow round the side of the bungalow and I also picked up two not so hardy Passion flowers 'Constance Elliot' & 'Empress Eugenie'

                I can work out what those things are for. :blue thumb: One of the centre pieces is a food mixer and the other is for frothing up coffee. The thing on the left is the coffee/soup cup and the thing on the right is for dicing vegetables. :)
