pots and containers.

Oh dear....last time I counted there were well over 300!! So it's probably nearer the 500 mark now.... (do I get a prize for being Potty? Lol)

hi irish am just gonna go and count mine dont think i have as many as you lol mite give up half way but will give it a go:~)

sorry bout blank comment rushing outside do a bit counting lol

Planted another pot yesterday - that takes me to twenty (not counting all the plants in pots ready for plant sales!)

lol wow Di

That's an easy one for me Irish - just the 2, lol, by the front door - how boring ..... you see, I cant be bothered to water them, ha ha.

its funny when you do count, they just seem to multiply and multiply

oh dear Crazydi thats some pots u deff havent LOST THE PLOT lol!!!!!!!

Perhaps they're self-sowing?

veryyyyyyyyyy good Andrew lol

thats what takes me so long in the evening Dawn, watering all the containers

Takes me all day ...lol...and yep, I lost the plot years ago ;)

I have 97 in the garden ~but I could add the ones I have watered twice today in the nursery .....Noooo my feet hurt just thinking about it! I'll count them tomorrow when I water them again!

lol ok Sue

Keeps you out of mischief Eileen, all that watering.

very true Dawn lol

~i'm not counting but there must be 150-200 not all ceramic ~i'm up there with Crazydi...the watering is a chore at times~it's going to rain at the weekend~Yipee!good old downpour needed!

Still have to water the pots though...even when it's raining :( You should hear some of the comments I get from the neighbours...

I'll try tomorrow Eileen. You might not get an answer till the next day though because I'll still be counting. lol

~yes that's why I want a bit of torrential rain like we had recently~everything was well watered~in fact we were paddling in it! and my waterbutt got filled~that light stuff does nothing does it!

lol fair enough Hywel

I got 38 just with tatties in em will have to count the rest there must be plenty . . . . although I think crazydi is easily the pottiest

lol i think she is too

Thankyou...lol :) :) :)

Wow Crazydi sounds like the winner! I only have 30 hanging baskets/pots and 90 pots/containers (including the tomato and herb pots).

Only 46 for me! Most of them bursting with red pelargoniums. Then there's my "nursery" in the plastic greenhouses - also bursting with red pelargonium cuttings. Well I have to - it's Spain and a casa is not a casa unless it's thoroughly decorated with red pelargoniums, and they brighten up the darkest day.

Great Blog Eileen :) Iv Huge Plain Black Flower Pots with Fuchsias in do they Count ? or its it just Pretty Pots? :D

Well I've just had a mental trip around the garden and there are no doubt some I've forgotten but I make it 32 permanent ones plus about 20 homeless souls who haven't found a place to put down roots yet, I'm working on that. So I guess that makes me quite sane and not at all potty compared to the champions!

hehe this is fab I thought I was a potaholic but it seems im no where near. I have 28 large terracotts, 5 metal and 3 ceramic

i havent bothered counting the little plastic pots I just havent the time

x x x

Jacque the big flower pots can be counted lol

well Bernieh your well over the hundred mark lol.

awww the red Pelargoniums are what makes the Spanish Casa's .

Lily and Mookins ye guys really are sane compared to some of us lol

AAAWwww Thanx Eileen :) I dont have over 200 so im not the Winner & it wont take me to long 2 count them lol :)

lol i thought i had quiet a lot Jacque till this blog

Its amazing isnt it Eileen :)

I will have to get some more pots to catch up with you all....LOl

I've only got ONE with my strawberries (sorry HOLLYS strawberries) in. I think I better get some more and quick. LOL

Great blog Irish

Ian

Goodness me Ladies, what a lot of pots LOL. I didn't realise that people could have that many, have you got a football pitch by any chance :o)

hehe you would think so hey Pamazon
my hubby already says I have far too many but I think I need more

hehe

x x x

thanks Ian, well one is better than none lol

im going to go out right now and count mine, it will be no where near as many as some folk lol

awwwww ive let myself down lol.
i only have 63 pots and 3 hanging baskets

My garden has 3 plants in pots, 7 trees in pots, 4 herbs in pots, and am I allowed to include the 3 belfast sinks?

aye Silverbelle, you can add in the belfast sinks too

Great, that makes my total 17! I'll be adding another 1 or 2 very soon when I pot up the Geraniums I got today. :-)

moreeeeeeeeee plants Silverbelle lol

Always room for one more, and one more, and one more...........

lol

I did a head count this morning (proper like, with a paper and pen....jotted them all down just for you...) Anyway, the grand total stands at 418 containers, pots, buckets, baskets, belfast sinks and multi-various odds 'n ends;) But then there's one or two more (maybe 50...???) tucked away behind the greenhouse, where I stash my collection of spring bulbs....
SO... AM I THE POTTIEST....? Lol

lol omg Di i would imagine you are the winner .

how on earth do you manage to water all these lol

Don't forget the ones Bill and Ben live in Di. They must be there along with all those fairies!

Lol....who knows who lurks out there! Not sure if Bill and Ben have taken up residence...but there's certainly Little Weed!
As for the watering....well at this time of year it's at least 2 hours a day, with the hosepipe. When I was younger (and fitter!) I did it all by hand with the watering can...
"Feeding" takes even longer...once a week (usually Fridays), all the flowering stuff gets a dose of tomato food....takes nearly all day!

Until I read this blog it hadn,t ever occured to me to count pots and baskets,anyway I went out this morning and had a check,My total is 68 in the gardens,never counted my greenhouses,too scary,lol.Now I undestand why hubby and daughters grumble about the watering when I am away,lol.......

Well Di, you are definitely the pottiest of the lot with your lots and lots of pots. Makes me feel tired to just think about watering them, better go and have a lie down! Lets hope there's not a hosepipe ban!!

least they dont have to water them every day Lincslass lol

wow thats a lot of pots

Jane just counted..including tomato plants.... theres 30 !

Whoops..didnt include Totos cuttings.thats another 10 !

40 so BB lol :-) see how clever i am

Lol...Eileen...top of the class for maths !

;-) education wasnt wasted on me lol

You are not kidding ! Lol

As I inherited a garden with no soil at all, my gardening is done entirely in pots and home-made boxes/raised beds. Could never, however, imagine having 64 - the time spent watering daily would be a full-time job - almost! :-)

Ive just ordered some more hehe

but no where near the 400 mark

hehe

x x x

lol David,
you think maybe i could retire and get paid for staying at home to water my planters , nowwwwwww theres an idea lol

keep ordering Mookins and you will have up to 400 lol

Well I've counted them at last. lol
On the patio - 66
About the garden 45
In the front - 3
In the poly grower things - Oh dear, so many geraniums cacti and seedlings and polyanthus etc. - I lost count. lol
Plus so many in the shed, and about 100 fuchsias, and Beryl's fuchsias that she hasn't taken back this year; and I don't know how many cacti, I lost count.
Well I did try :o)
Oh yes and a few down the other side of the garage waiting to be put in the ground. I don't know if those count. lol

lol wow Hywel

Did you run out of fingers Hywel? :o)

Hywel, what size garden do you have? lol. It must be the size of a football pitch!.....;o)
