      Hello Verdun...I totally agree with Martin your garden is stunning and you definitely know your stuff where plants are concerned but it's a lovely pleasure for myself first time seeing your plants and they are overwhelming to the eye :wub2: selection :)

        I was cutting down an Acuba Picturata last year and I pulled up a small piece with a root.
        I potted it up and here it is:

            A few nasturtiums have opened over the last few days.

              I love nasturtiums :wub2:
              I was disappointed to find my seed store empty of them:frown:
              Being skint, I just got on with what I had and forgot about them:)
              I've now got at least 3 plants (self sown ) in completely the wrong places :rolleyespink: but loving I can get seeds and see those little fighters survive and flower!
              What a plant! :blue thumb:

                      The climbers are fab for difficult places, they just get on with it :)
                      No one ever seems to suggest annuals for the age old question
                      ' how do I screen the neighbours ' if you're in the garden in the summer...... nasturtiums!!! :spinning:

                                Cordyline in the back garden with new shoots in the middle..it's come on well since early this year and those conifer cuttings dropped the side in.
