          I stumbled upon trays of violas and wallflowers in B & Q today, a pound each so got 5 trays of violas and 2 of wallflowers. The rain should be off for a wee while tomorrow so with luck I'll get them potted up and post their lovely smiley faces @BeeHappy :snorky:

                  It's Camellia time...

                  Extravaganza (my favourite), magnificant large blooms with subtle striping
