Been getting into gardening again with the sun shining found another big mirror in the garage so we are going to put it up in the garden needs prep and then I will post when it is in situ:)


Gave ornamental grass a new hair do!

New mothers day pressies little bay tree and olive tree


Plants outside front door Poropetalum , campunla and bulbs

Little Willow in the front garden

Peoni starting to grow!

Lovely white helebore i the front garden

And another beautiful pink helebore

Sadly louvred mirror a birthday pressie from my dad last year for my birthday was not as weatherproof as it stated in the description

But all was not lost a coloured cuprinal in a lovely blue has given it a new lease of life to go in my med eating area , all I have to do now is put my mosaics in there and plant hundreds of plants in my pots water like crazy then I can relax for the summer lol:)

So excited about gardening again already written a list of plants I want it’s only a little list………….but I am sure it will grow and grow:) xxxxxxxxxx Happy Gardening Everyone On GOY!

Very nice pics Nana, you got some lovely gifts there, its good to be in the gardening mood again, you made me think of Glenn Miller with your headline.Your mirror is looking smashing with its new blue coat....

Hi Linclass that is exactly what I was singing it really is lovely to be out in the garden again, hopefully mirror will be put back up tonight and tonight I can prep the big mirror ready for that to go up too:) And my little water feature which I only ordered yesterday has been delivered today:)

Very nice, you`re in a good mood then , lol, mind you I daren`t turn mine on in case someone reports me, even though its only recycled rainwater... We are desperate so I keep topping up my butts with my bucket and all my rinsing water gets thrown into one on the backyard for my flowers....

Hi Linclass we have not got a ban here yet but I bet it will happen soon then I will be saving bath water etc not good for the poor plants and means no bubbles in the bath for me!

29 Mar, 2012

 

It will be ok if you can leave it standing for a while as the chemicals die off, I never use it straight away....
