thanx yorkshire the pyracantha was only £3.99 and its about 24" or more, most iv seen have been about £5.99, she said they get them from holland and in large quantities which makes it cheaper, the winter jasmin was £5.40 but i love them so spent a bit more haha

I think you got two good buys there San, and they should be good coming from Holland, well done

Ah, great news about the tree. My garden really wet too, it's like a bog out there, but didn't stop me fishing leaves out of the puddles the other day...I'm mad, I know, but the sun was out San!

14 Feb, 2011

 

lol karen, i dont blame you if the sun is out, got to make the most of every min. iv turned the pond filter and pump on today as its looking a bit murky, will soon look clear again, i enjoyed doing a bit in the garden today, blows the cobwebs off haha

Yes, it always makes me feel tons better. Come to think of it San, I was fibbing, it wasn't sunny at all, it was dreich and horrid but I just had to get outdoors! We've had a bit of sun and a bit of rain today, but quite mild for feb.

2 essentials Sandra, lovely. The birds love the pyracantha berries which is a bonus. I bought some aconites in the green last year from a grower, quite cheap _ if you'd like details pm me. :)

Lovely shrubs Sandra, I have a Pyracantha nice hardy shrub and like Dawn says the birds just love the lovely berries;0)
