Thanks Karen but I must be honest, its a bit of a mess at present. On the left you can just see the crown of the Gazebo, which will be erected (hopefully) tomorrow. Then I can get planting, or rather OH plants where I ask him to lol. I have irises all over waiting to be planted and 4 clematis (Broughton Bride, Niobe, Sieboldii and Serotina(?) the yellow dangly one..and 6 roses and the patios need a good clean..and it goes on and on!

Oh, but it will all be sooooo worth it! It looks very 'warm' with that pale beige gravel and I can't wait to see it all done. Don't forget the before and after blog!!! NIOBE rules!!!! lol

Well, the Gazebo is up and Im taking pictures. Before planting, after planting and later when stuff has grown. I will post a blog Karen never fear. Though it will take several weeks to shift a tonne of gravel, lay the circle, plant the plants etc, cant wait to share it with you all.

Had a nice surprise this afternoon while pulling couple weeds from the pot. Can you see a collection of leaves around the base of the pot? Well I was chatting away pulling up everything except the viola when I discovered this little collection of leaves had come up with roots and even better, had a second set of leaves growing...just like miniature acer leaves!
Couldnt wait to get them into a little pot. There are three little pots sat in my greenhouse with tickets saying "Acer Brilliantissimum ??" on them. Here's hoping...
