Thank you Yorkshire.I wonder if we were there at the same time,as we got there about 12pm,and had a sandwich in the cafe first...What time were you there ?

17 Feb, 2011

im taking a week off in march to get on top of my garden ready for easter, each time i come round the back i take something dead out lol, slowly does it hahah

Ok Yorkshire ,will do.We usually call in if we are at that side of town,as we like it there,and the cafe..better than some supermarket ones..Its always busy,so it speaks for itself. As you know,we usually go to another supermarket,as I still get 10% discount ..and at sale times its great .Lol. Have you ever tried the farm shop cafe ,near to the Pennine garden centre?..very nice and much cheaper..

Thankyou Paul ,I agree about the flowers too.I bought a bunch about 5 weeks ago,and granted,they are in a cold conservatory,and are just starting to look tatty...never had any so long before...and the price? ..£1.50p !!

Elsiemay..I was very pleased with them too.I keep reading from other GoYers what bargains they have bought there,but not been lucky..till today :o)

Thanks Shirley..tomorrow ? .the Hellebores were planted after I took the photo !..I don't mess around.Lol.The Skimmia is in a planter by the front door for now.Although it didn't say anything on the label,about the type of soil to plant it in,my gardening book states Ericaceous compost,and I have none left..but I will be getting some soon,as need it for top dressing Camelia and Pieris.

Not so much Bloomer as Wonderwoman today then? We had a beautiful sunny day so I planted my new shrubs . Rain forecast for next 3 days . . . saves me watering them! : o )

17 Feb, 2011

 

We had grey foggy damp stuff today,Shirley...till I got home with my plants !..the sun shone just long enough to plant.them..I'm a'can't wait ' person..:o)
Not a good forecast is it ..and going to get colder.,
snow mentioned for the north east and Scotland again too.
I hope they are wrong....

17 Feb, 2011
