Are those all solar lights ?

Thank you. Yes all solar light and only £1 each. Didn't think they'd be any good but am quite shocked. lol

You've done sooo well ! :o)

Very nice, think i should get some new ones as its just as cheap to by new as replace batteries.

That looks really lovely Steve. Really pretty and I particularly love the dicentra...if it is dicentra....beside the corner there.

Does your neighbour also have a nice garden? It looks like it might be on 'tropical' lines?

Thanks Clarice & Karen. Yes its just as cheap to buy new than replacement batteries. lol.
Yes Karen its a Dicentra Blleding hearts plant. Think i've got a pic on here in daylight hours. If I haven't then i'll post in a minute.
Our neighbours garden is lovely but all paved and not many flowers due to her suffering from hayfever. God wish she'd told me before i got all my plants. She's gonna love me in the summer when pollen at its peak. I do love her palm tree's and looked into getting 1 myself but very expensive.
Me & the wife have said that if the staghorn tree doesn't look nice this summer than we'll replace it with palm trees.

Stagshorn Sumach is so beautiful in the autumn though Steve. Your neighbour won't be expecting you to keep your garden pollen free, it's just something she has to deal with....poor lady..I'm so glad I don't have that problem! Anyway, it might not be flower pollen that gets her, it might be tree pollen or grasses....

I have the white Dicentra Steve. I love it and it really shines out in shade....so does the pink one of course....I had that in a shady spot in my old garden so thought I 'd go for white here for a change! I really love this photo of yours though, it's so 'serene' looking and the light is just beautful.

Little Mo???? She's huge! lol. I'll post a pic on here in the minute and you can see how fat our cats are! lol.

Thats good then. See how it goes as its been neglected for couple of years at least. Got rid of dead or broken branches and horns and hopefully the prunning should've worked. Starting to sprout gorgeous colour leaves. Done a close up pic in my photos of this.
I do like the Dicentra and Fuchia, think there gorg plants. I bet white looks nice at night aswell.
Yes its lovely out here at night and got the lighting on walls & sloar along border just right I think. Nice to look at when i'm out having a ciggie
