**TODAY I HAVE BEEN MOSTLY ENJOYING OUR EVERGREENS**

Oooh...looking forward to it! :)

An inspiring collection !

love them, what a lot you have!

lots if interesting shapes and colours. :o)

Im loving my elaeagnus ..its the yellow variegated form. Its very robust and every leaf is a little work of Art! :)

Love all your evergreens! They keep us going through the winter.

Thanks to Sandra, Karen, Seaburn, Olive,Stera, for taking the time to read my blog..........just putting the next one together...

What a lovely selection Angela they look so healthy , What did you do with your Loropetalum chinense this year ? I left mine out all winter by mistake it was tucked to one side pending arrangments , its had everything the weather could throw at it ,freezing sometimes but still looks as good as new in fact I don't think it could look better .

Have you been polishing all those leaves?!
They all look so shiny and so healthy and so lovely.
Lots of beautiful colour out there.

Love it love it love it, off to read part 2, I will be asking questions on varieties ?

Wonderful,Angela..love the Pittosporums too ..my Tom Thumb( your 1st photo ) has had new pale green foliage for ages..so many lovely plants..lucky,lucky you :o) x

You have some lovely evergreens. They are essential for a good winter garden.

I really like your bronze coloured Pittosporum. I've got a variegated one that has grown just so very tall!!! I love the foliage for flower arranging :o)

Petal Pittosporum does well by the coast,it has to be clipped every year here, which I quite enjoy doing! there would be plenty of cutting material for you lol
Hywel thanks, we try to pack in as many as possible....
Sandra thank you, I cannot resist the temptation! couldn't do without our evergreen shrubs and trees!
Dawn pleased you are enjoying the blogs.......
Wildrose I am particularly fond of shiny leaves....
Amy it is planted in the border, has been for a couple of years now, the frost has taken the ends!! since renewing the fence, we have lost all the protection on that side of the garden, which is a nuisance! so pleased to hear you're doing well with yours:-)

Thanks for that Angela I feel happier leaving it outside in future ,shame about you losing the fence protection Hopeful your new plants etc will grow sufficiently to afford more cover next year ...

Amy we had put in lots of fast growing plants, unfortunately not being evergreen they were cut back, will have to change a few things before we have a very cold winter!!

Wonderful display and all named which will be so helpful to new gardeners and us older ones when we want to plant some low maintenance and of course evergreen plants well done !

Dotty, I'm on 'catch-up' with blogs and have enjoyed this very much. Like you, I am a fan of Pittosporums and Photinias but the spotted Aucuba always makes me think a pot of yellow paint has been splashed on it!

What a wonderful collection DD, they are giving you plenty of winter interest.

Thank very much Kidsgran, so pleased you found the blogs useful.....
Shirley they are true coastal plants, if they can thrive here....
Stroller I like to see plenty of green plants in the winter, and have always had a passion for evergreens.....
