    Ranniculars (sp) daffs and polyanthus planted along the very front of the border. Looks great :)
    Just considering getting the grass up and getting a new lawn down. Mine is past the stage of saving i think?

        My garden fairy came today and we did loads of painting. The garden walls just soak it up.

            I noticed you hadn't been around for a while CRG. It sounds like you've been very busy.

            As you say spring is finally putting in an appearance but we could do with a little more warmth. I need to get all my seedlings into the greenhouse as I'm running out of space indoors. :)

            Check out the thread on strulch, a member has posted there about it making their dog sick???

            Nice to see you back. :dbgrtmb:

                MY garden now has cream walls at last and the rose leaves are unfurling nicely. Just cant wait till the weather warms uo a bit as little chimney is not fussed at gardening in the cold despite how much I wrap her up.

                  I hope my roses survive CRG, they've been under a 4ft snowdrift for a week, I'm getting a little worried.

                  Yes I did CRG about a month ago. Armandii assures me they will survive, I hope so!

                    I think they are still available from most Garden Centres. My brother recently bought me a mini irrigation system that I will use for tomatoes, it has drip taps and hose for four plants, the hanging pouch is filled with water. I know they cost less than ten pounds, so it may work out cheaper for you to buy these. :)

                        Your garden looks much better with the wall painted CRG, it reflects the light back into it. :dbgrtmb:
