Our Fernery

i like ferns flori, ive got two in new area close to fence where a bit shady, hoping they do well ;o)

Hi San, as long as shady and moist, they will do fine! Never thought I could get away with Ferns in my garden, as when we do get the sun, it is with us the best part of the day, we are so lucky in that respect! But as my garden has developed over the years, I have found a few areas perfect for Ferns, and this really is the ideal area to grow them on, considering how useless it was for anything else, so am quite chuffed with results!

hi flori yes we get sun all day at the back but in different areas, so planted where i think gets most shade, its fine here today and trying to motivate myself to do something, after my pond disaster im a bit fed up,will be glad of some sunshine to dry everything out :o)

It's wet again here today, and showery sunday so they say. Monday could be dry~yippee! My Ferns are loving the water, such a pity I'm not lol!:~(((( Know it's hard to bounce back after a bit of a disaster San, but it will get sorted sweetheart, and be better than ever I promise! Our disaster is the collapse of a small retaining wall, which in our naivety we really didn't do that well, I know that now, but how I wish I had that insight back then! This means I've got collapsing trellis, and probably have to take out a raised bed to correct it, oh my poor poor plants! {~((( ~See? It can happen to anyone, just put it down to a steep learning curve San X

This is lovely what a display lover ferns but I always kill them.

This was pretty damp out when I took this, so not looking as good as they usually do, but we were so lucky with this corner, when it was good for nothing else, and due to being in shade so much of the day, the quarter pots don't tend to dry out so much, so ideal for this purpose. Thanks for your kind comment Sixpence :~))

Your welcome Floribunda

:~))))) X

: O )

Oh blimey, mine got lots and lots of double chins tee hee hee! :~)))))))))))))X

hi flori sorry about your wal and trellis, and of course your plants, thats going to be a job and a half for you, do hope you get better weather soon so you can get things done,when things go wrong we always feel its just us but chating on here lets us see we arent alone :o)) x

Out of all the good GoY does, the wonderful support system we have among each other, has to be the best.I kind of had a bit of a cuss when the wall collapsed, but you live and learn San! We will get it sorted, and be wiser from the situation, we live, we learn, we plod on.........:~)) Lolx

lol oh yes i do alot of ploding flori :o))

You and me both San lol!! :~))

gud idea will have to do that

This area was originally meant for herbs,but found they got really 'leggy', but Ferns work an absolute treat here! Am glad you have found a little inspiration from this, Cristina :~))
