Anenomes pushing up...





I noticed a nice fat bud on one of the tree peonies



And the Magnoilia Susan is slow to start with the cold and it's shaded winter position.

 

Hi Shiney :D

Dwarf Daffs are lasing well...



And the birds have at least let one of my little boys sunflowers germinate.

BM I'm always green with envy every time I see your plot..... but then I'm sure I'm not alone with my jealousy! Hel.xxx.

 

fantastic B.M ...thats special

 

It might be ok, but I have had very mixed success with ensete. I am not as experienced with them as the basjoos but the succes I did have was by keeping them in growth. The minute they start to dry out I got the strangles which is where they dry to the point that a new leaf becomes clogged and it all ends badly. See how it goes, providing its not a squidgy mess its worth hacking back to the good stuff and putting it in full sun in a warm spot to encourage the centre stem to get going. I did this with a sickly 'siki' last year and it took a while but it did recover.
