Lovely gifts from your family, the OLive and Bay trees will make a great addition to your garden ;0) Ive just got back from the garden Center, spending my birthday and Mother's Day vouchers, bought a lovely large pot to replant my Palm in and some pansies and Primula to vamp up my pots in the garden, also had gifts of beautiful White Orchid and a Cerise Senetti from my Sons;0)

Thanks Pansy our kids obviously know us very well LOL:) Managed to get the lawn mowed today after work lots of brown patches bald patches but hopefully it will pull through might get some seed for the bald bits. Your gifts sound lovely my orchid is flowering from last year which is nice. Hi Pixi glad my avatar is back to normal what did it look like??
