    It just goes to show that for every Jack theres a Jill

    I planted freckles on the front of a steel pergola earlier this year. I didn't want anything too showy on there and wanted evergreen. This fitted the bill perfectly. It just needs to start growing a bit more now.

      To be honest I was reading an old garderners world magazine today (October 2009) and came across this article by Alan Titchmarsh so i think i will be investing.
