January garden 2012

Thanks you Annella and a Happy New Year to you and your family , lovely colourful photo's I love the red colouring of the Heuchera it's gorgeous ......

It all looks lovely Annella, I carn't believe how many flowers you still have out, you must have a very sheltered garden. I love it when the frost has been on things like that......., Springs round the corner.

Amy I pinned down some of the penstemon in October after reading your tip and they seem to have taken already! Cheers for that ;o)

Lots of lovely plants and flowers there Anella

I'm really pleased to hear that Annella , it's lovely to have some freebies isn't it :o))

Beautiful. Having spent a couple of hours on here this afternoon looking at everyone's great gardens and photos I am just about ready to give up!

what a lovely collection annella, i love those little tunnels of ladybird trains ~ looks like the underground!

mahonia looks really good and photinea ~ i didnt realise they had flowers.!!

dont give up steragram, bet yours looks better than mine ~ perhaps i will put pictures of my garden on ~ it doesnt [sadly] look like this.

Thanks girls. Never give up Steragram, I am hoping to leave here this year and will be starting again in a new garden. This blog is to remind me of all the things I loved in winter here. Sticki there are about 25 lady birds on that one bush all snugged up tight ;O)))

Annella your garden is looking lovely in the frost. Those Sempervivums look fantastic with their frosty coating.

Steargram, I know the feeling. I'm certain your garden looks better than mine at the moment.

arent they sweet!
the ladybird train leaving from platform 6 will call at

Beautiful even in January lovely blog :)

Absolutely beautiful Annella..as always :))))

Lol! Very good (Wellingbugrough sounds too rude Sticki)

:-))

At last! Annie has written a blog!! Thank you, thank you! lol...Erodium Sweetheart has turned out to be quite a performer hasn't she? I must go out and look at mine tomorrow. Believe it or not, I have not yet had a chance to go out in the garden and my new trees are still all wrapped up and trussed. I shall have to get them in soon before they dry out! Lovely blog Annie...your garden is an all year around champion! :)

Such a lovely garden, it is going to be hard to leave all this behind, I hope you find something as beautiful as this one.

A garden from us all to take ideas and inspiration from.

Thanks Dotty & Stroller. Karen I didn't realise how long it was since my last blog. 'Sweetheart' is a firm favourite here now, I love the way that something so delicate can be so tough. Are you out planting today? Bet you are really feeling the cold!

Been out and planted this morning Annie. It's not too bad..the ground isn't frozen at all. I even had to take my scarf off! ;) I had a look at my erodium and it has a good few buds on, but no flowers at the moment! Scott is feeling it much worse than me I think, but I am so glad to be home and back to my garden! :))) x

Karen do you find after being in the sun on holiday you generate heat for a days when you come home....bit like a glow worm I suppose Lol x

Well, I can't say I've ever noticed that Annie. But I tell you what, after spending the last 20 minutes on my mini trampoline, I am certainly generating heat now!! lol ;))

Lol hun...calm down

:) I am now restored....

Annella
your garden looks lovely after the frosts... being really cheeky but I would love a cutting of your Hebe's they look lovely.. Happy to offer you any cuttings in return..

Hi Mad how are you? If you pm your address I will pop some cuttings in the post.

Hi Annella! Your garden really is for all seasons - absolutely beautiful...
...did I read that you're leaving it behind?

Lovely blog Annella - your garden is one of my favourites on here.

Thanks Frybo. Karen yes I hoping to move this year, need to downsize my house but would like a bigger garden ;O)

A lovely winter garden Annella.....Putting it in the GoYpedia pages under "winter colour plants". I'm sure it will help those looking for ideas.

Aah...am with you there, Annie...did same (before the winds of Africa blew us askew!) Got it! And so will you! x

Loved this blog ... those Sempervivums look as though they have been sculpted into those wonderful shapes ... and so many blooms out already ... :o)

Hi Annella\0/ love this blog. How beautiful and neat your garden is still and it has given some ideas for making mine more winter-lovely. Have you seen any property you like yet? Don't forget we will want to see the garden you chose and then you will be able to do more great before and after blogs:-)

Sorry to be so late :(( but just had to say how amazing your garden is looking - hard to believe pics taken in February! Adding it to favourites to remind me of all the beautiful possibilities here . . . and what a wrench for you to leave all this behind. Lots of luck with finding somewhere you'll be happy. :))

Very interesting article, can I publish it on this site? http://flowerdeliveryuae.com
