    @pete the coffee morning @shiney land was great last year, it was wonderful to see the garden at a different time of year....of course it was looking rather splendid. The lunch, chatter & of course Mr & Mrs Shiney's company was as ever very enjoyable, if there's a coffee morning this year I shall hope to attend :dbgrtmb:

      @strongylodon your stargazer lily is very beautiful, they are my favourite flower, my wedding bouquet was made up of stargazer lilies :)

      My hibiscus is a long way behind yours, you are so lucky to already have blooms :dbgrtmb:

      Did your standard wisteria bloom this year? :)

        I'm afraid not @Beckie76 the few buds came to nothing, the Stargazers were 5 bulbs for £2 in Morrisons a couple of years ago, couldn't resist them!:smile:

                Hanging baskets are starting to fill out - clearly not quick enough for the birdies who appear to have added a sunflower to the mix.. hopefully not a huge one !
