There is a heater set at 0c Degrees in winter just as a precaution.

I love leaves Brian.

Amazing - makes me tired just thinking about all that potting!

You must have a lot of patience Brian, how often do you water them this time of the year please and do you just water the gravel they are sitting in..

Agree with Lincs, you must be a very patient gardener. They must have made a lovely display earlier in the year.

That looks wonderful. I love green leaves! Such variety - they must be stunning when they're flowering.

How lovely to see all those primulas potted on and looking positively perfect, I wish I too had your patience....

All looking spic and span Brian - I truly admire your dedication.

This time of year there are some lovely leaf shapes in public gardens. See the way the light shines on them.
Easy to break one off and bring home. Sketching them just needs a B2 pencil and small sketch pad.
Sharpen the pencil to a 'bayonet' point with a penknife.
Use the sharp edge to draw the outline, then carefully shade in the contours on the surface of the leaf with the flat edge.
Clean the rubber on a piece of scrap paper.

wow! lots of repotting done there. Its an enormous display lol love to see them all sat in their pots on trays of gravel. Lovely plants when they are all out in flower but still nice when they are in the green. You must have so much patience. I could not cope with that many plants I struggle to keep my few that I have repotted for next years garden. lol. I am excited though as I saved seeds from H.Golden Chimes and lots have germinated so more potting on to do for me soon. lol. Brilliant to see them Bjs. :O)
ps what sort of heater do you use in your greenhouses and alpine house do you heat or not?
