my garden

thankyou cazlaz the wee lawnmowers are very entertaining trim the azaleas beautifully to :fingerdrum: thankyou jwk hmm im a bit of a tidy freak in the garden :o lol thankyou ziggys the rodents do squeak and the male sings and even does a wee dance for his girlies

 

oh and yes ziggy ive got a bit of a bamboo fetish :o only7 visible in the photos got another 14 i think

 

Love it! Especially the 'wee' lawnmowers - had a couple of those when my children were children.......... Like the unusual design work in the back garden.

 

hehe thankyou barnaby,the wee lawnmowers or hairy hippies is there other name are great fun and do a far better job than my mower for the front grass

 

its lovely :thumb:... whats the burnt orange plant in the photo with your lawnmowers ?

 

thankyou joolz68,that is an azaelia they all are well 2 rhodies,we love them and there perfume also they are to provide cover for the lawnmowers so they feel safer ( 2 of them were taken by our tawny owl caught on cctv :OUCH we plan to add quite a few more around the lawnmower area especially around the area the 2 were taken from

 

thats sad im sorry the are sooo cute.... i need 50 to our lawn and i guess the fox would have a feast x can you take cuttings of the one you have or do you need to seed them?i love the colour

 

havent got a clue to be honest,but could get you 1,we use a specialist nursery (rare and unusual plants) only about £7.50 to £15 no idea about postage but usually fairly reasonable

 

thanks ruth x
