Xmas Lavender

What a lovely present Val, he was a very very nice man indeed! lol
I've no idea how to care for it, are there no instructions? It depends whether it's been kept indoors or outdoors. My guess is it's been somewhere protected as lavender usually gets very tatty looking over winter outdoors. How about in your conservatory?

Yes, agreed! isn't it beautiful...would be lovely in the conservatory where you can sniff it!

Thanks for that Lily, the plant was from my sister in Cyprus.
I reckon its been kept in a greenhouse and as I don't have one it will have to be in the conservatory, along with all the other hundred or so plants, maybe they will keep one another warm. Lol.
Not sure about the watering though, maybe play safe and keep on the dry side.

Yes Karen I could smell it as I undid the box, it was a lovely surprise.
Thanks.

Val at first I thought the plant had come from Cyprus
that would have been a shock to its system.However i spotted good old M&S on the box so it should not be to much of a problem wrap it in fleece if it worries you.

I know Brian, its the way that I tell 'em. LOL
What I should have said was my sister who lives in Cyprus sent it me . Phew !
Thanks for the advice.

Val, that must have cheered you up no end!

Sure did Mags, it was a complete surprise.
Thanks .

Thats a lovely prezzie Val, praps when you write/ring her you could ask for a stocking prezzie as well...like a bit of her sunshine and warmth! Enough for all your Goyer pals too please, lol!

If only.....if only Tet. ;0))

Lovely pressie.

Thanks Clarice.

What a lovely pressie and such wonderful scent Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yes, as I open the door the perfume is lovely.

So its surviving the cold weather then Val...thats good.

Yes Tet. I heat the conservatory when it gets really cold.

How did this do over the winter Val?

Very well thank you Tets, I kept it in the conservatory and am sure I can see some new growth, am looking for a nice pot to repot it.

Now is the time apparently, B&Q have a sale but Yorkie has this lovely pot..standing in the garage doing nothing...you could slip up there one dark night...lol!

So glad it wintered well Val, it really is a super little tree.

Am on my way!
To B&Q, not Yorkshire ! lol
