Skimmia

Oooh , now I have some Skimmias but I've never thought to sniff them!

Funny you know, this is one plant that bores the heck out of me. Dont know why.

I'm like that with Pachysandra Terminalis Tetrarch!

Not much to look at Tetrarch but that scent....... opened the front door today and just thought springs here at last, the bees were swarming round it.

I've got the popular balsam tree Kathy & the new foliage has been filling our garden with perfume. Do you know it?

Flowers are pretty, flowers are fun
I put them in my garden one by one
I fall in love with this and I fall in love with that
But Skimmia really bore me, Im not buying it - thats flat!
Dont tempt me with the perfume and pictures on the right
My garden's getting crowded, and the budget's getting tight,
I didnt fancy small plants, now Bj's spoilt that
And Karen and that Spritz keep tempting me..oh drat!
My Irises are jealous they dont like competition
If I didnt like this site so much I'd send it to perdition!!

No Pam not heard of the balsam tree, off to have a google in a minute.
Lol very good Tetrarch, are your iris doing ok? I have some buds on a couple of mine.

Yes Simbad I have 3 budding..none of the new ones yet tho! Getting excited!!
