While i will admit to being over 21 i dont think i will admit to being 23
and it was with some depression looming I started to open my Presents, all the time in the back of my mind I am thinking please not another shirt.
So when my cup and saucer emerged my gloom lifted(a little)something for my garden,I like that.
Second parcel even better a clock I can see with out a magnifying glass
Installed today without a hitch.
Then there was booze,thats whats in my pocket ready to fill the cup ( don’t want you ladies getting the wrong idea)
And just look what fell into the back of my car yesterday a White Wisteria( eat your heart out Tet)
Just hope it true to colour ,it was properly labeled but the supplier might be long gone before it flowers, go on say it so might i be in which case i wont worry.
There are are afew more pictures i will add my favorite shot of the pink Wisteria,A nice blue Clematis and a pretty fern needs shade.
Off to to do some more watering we have not seen any for nearly 2 months here and camelias in the open groud are showing signs of stress.
Enjoy

Birthday greetings Bjs,
lovely pressies, hope your cup runneth over - although not sure that bottle is big enough.
Am very envious of your Pink Wisteria, I have a white one and a pink one but maybe I`m being fooled as I havent seen a flower on either of them yet, but it is only three years since planting. :o[[

Happy year ahead in your 23rd (U gonna burn boy).
The cup is lovely, & so is the clock. Someone love you:-))
U are a great gardener.

I dont know how I came to miss this, but luckily caught your birthday when you posted the pretty broom!
I certainly am green with envy over your white wisteria and hope it flowers for you next year! (only so I can come and see, I cant afford to wait too long either lol!)
You had some great pressies, and glad P took the pictures before you finished that cup of hooch..tho its a shame she didnt take one of you lying on your back snoring after emptying the cup!!!
The clock is fantastic, and I will be rude enough to copy you there..the times we are working in the garden and I forget I have a Dr's appointment or something..time flies when you are enjoying yourself.
We love our little bit of garden, and you must feel the same 10 times over...its like living in paradise every day.
