    A lovely tree Woo with lots of berries. Folklore would say that's a sign of a bad winter coming. :)

            :doh: I have Johnsons Blue geraniums and Orange Crocosmia (from the days when I was told it was 'montbretia' ) What a stunning combo: think I'll plagiarise that idea for next year :thumbsup: )

                Good afternoon all my friends its 30c here:phew:
                I have just moved my greenhouse as I decided that it was getting to much sun as it has been 110f all the summer,I have moved it to the top of the garden where there is just a little more shade,and it will give me more area for my wildlife meadow:)

                    That looks good Woo. I think your summer GH plants will be grateful that you did that,
                    nice to see you around again,

                          Woo, a good idea to give the greenhouse more shade. Now don't forget where you've put it when you next go to check on your plants. Old habits die hard! :heehee:
