Tiarella

Really full of flowers...very pretty :)

They are very pretty aren't they Whistonlass, I am off to get some more next week. Oh dear bang goes the pension for another week. lol.

There is also a plant called Heucherella which is a Hybrid of Heuchera and Tiarella, it is interesting isn't it this plant science thingy. I bought a couple of Heucherallas also. They look very similar to Heuchera but more split/deeper cut leaves.

Olive....lol @ your plants vs. pension! I've noticed people have mentioned the Heucherella and didn't realize the connection with Tiarella...now all becomes clear :)

They are lovely...very lush growth/flowers.

I didn't until I googled it Whistonlass, amazing what you can learn on the web isn't it!

Yes, whatever did we do without the www? We have a large complete set of Encyclopedia Britannica and they are never off the shelf these days...better to get up to date info online.

they are very nice - bought one of these :):):)

eh hem...no mention here of my hint about he heucherella thing...instead the credit all goes to Google! typical......;)) Aren't tiarellas lovely though? And they like shade too! What a plant for a shady damp spot! Mine are almost in flower now as well.

Oh and I seem to recall that Karen did mention they were of the same family also. Credits Credits Credits. lol.

:)

Beautiful flowers but I think the leaves are even more so. Very nice.

Yes they are Alberta9 lovely plant think I shall have to have some more of these.

I never see these in the garden centres. It's very pretty

Only seen them this year Annella, so do not know if they will stand up to the cold in winter, it says they are hardy but there is hardy and not so hardy as we have all learned to our cost this last two winters.

I think they will be tough as old boots Mum!

And I bet they have them on Crocus!

You will have to get on there Annella and look for it. It is still full of flower. Really pretty. The others I bought are later ones, they are just starting to throw up flowers.

I reckon you would get these in most GCs though Annie.

Yes have seen them in all the ones I have been to Karen, well all those within a 20 mile radius. lol.

Not seen one yet Karen and have been 'popping in' 3 different GCs localy, might have to check again tonight....or should I feed the kids? Decisions,decisions Lol

let them eat cake! lol

Cupboards are bare but the gardens looking good!

Hope you don't get home and find them munching on your plants then!

That would make me Lol! They don't normally eat those plant type things in the house (veggies)

Nope, one of mine does, one doesn't. Rachel is so like her dad...only likes bland dull white food!! Callum is totally like me....luuuuurves all food except seafood and eats loads of veg....and loads of everything else too!!

I'm with you and Callum then, the only things I don't like are sluggy seafood (cockles, muscles etc) and baked beans!

That's good then, I won't have any problems feeding you when you come on your holidays!!

I drink just about anything too!! Lol

You will be fine with the Fraser clan then Annella, boozey lot they are!!

Ooooh that reminds me, last night I had two glasses of Pimms....first Pimms Cocktails of 2011!!!!! Hurray!

Yay - that should have relaxed those muscles then.

Lol Olive I'm sure I would fit in nicely!
Karen on the menu tonight is....Lychnis, Jasione, Dianthus followed by Veronica 'Foxy Red' a nice little hot cerise dish...4 for £10.00

LOL!!!! Annie! My two came over last night so I cooked a nice nut roast for Dinner and an apple sponge pudding with custard. It was nice to have us all around the table again for a change, but I was glad they were going home afterwards. The amount of housework here has gone to virtually nothing...it's amazing!! Btw, Pimms didn't work, I'm actually having to do exercises!!! I'm definitely getting old! :((

You obviously did not have enough Pimms it would have worked if you had had another couple of glasses.

I'll try that tonight then when scott's out playing footie. By the time he gets home I'll be sloshed!

These are nice!

they are very pretty, I love the spikes of flowers.
