                Mrs Shiney has just potted up a batch of Stipa arundinacea for sale. (Another plant that has had its name changed :doh: - to Anemanthele lessoniana :rolleyespink:).

                It grows up to 3ft high, is green through late spring and summer and gradually turns to a yellowy orange through autumn and winter. It has a pleasant droopy, feathery effect and looks good moving around in the wind. It prefers dryer conditions and either sun or shade.

                If anyone wants it put aside for them then please let me know. :blue thumb:

                          @nFrost Brilliant :dbgrtmb:

                          PM me for directions (I'll give you detailed ones) and if you need accommodation I could give you some links.

                          Youngsters are good :biggrin:. With a bit of luck Moyra may be bringing Amber, her dog, and I'm sure they'll get on well. There'll be plenty of cake to keep kids happy.

                            So, reminder time, have you (in no particular order) :-
                            1. "booked" your time out with those at home (told your significant others/work/etc)?
                            2. organised transport?
                            3. got your directions sorted?
                            4. booked accommodation (if required)?
                            5. saved lots of pennies in your piggy bank?
                            6. polished up your sense of humour
                            7. put your name down for the Indian meal in the evening (if applicable)?
                            8. packed a spare brolly?
                            9. written your plant wish list so you know what to look out for?
                            10. Got your camera battery charged?
                            Tempus fugit! :hapfeet:
