You've got some stored up beauty there Jacque. Your garden will look even more lovely and colourful come Summer. When you think of it, the value for money is amazing for what you get out of them.
I find clothes shopping totally boring, but on entering a Nursery or good Garden Centre, my stomach lurches with excitement. A lovely buy Jacque.

These will make a wonderful show Jacque ... I know that we should lift the tubers Janey but we never do , they have always been alright up 'till now ... I expect this year will be the exception we may well lose the lot .. If yours survive let me know later in the year :o)

I went to Wilko's last week, Jacque - the gardening shelves were empty then! Now of course we're snowed in again, so no chance of investigating. :-(((

13 Jan, 2010

 

There is 1 good thing about it Spritz!! if u cant get there then nobody can so if theyv filled the shelfs @wilkos theyl still have plenty 4 u ;)

13 Jan, 2010

 

It doesn't work that way, sadly - the people in the town can walk there, while we have to drive in - 9 miles! I don't stand much chance, do I? :-(((

13 Jan, 2010
