Back patio pots

After a tidy up and re-potting Hydrangea 'Lady Taiko Blue'.
The Acer was £2.99 from Morrisons last year and is doing really well

Great Acer bargain Annella...they are so expensive, my sister and me shared a 4 pack last year, they were only small but coming on well, worked out at £3 each plant...:>)

Looks great...that Acer, what a bargain!! One of my Hydrangeas survived the winter not too badly, the other one had tiny, tiny shoots on it, but I decided to get rid as I needed the pot for my Dahlias and I didn't think it would come back very well, it was growing soooooo slowly!

Wow thats a bargain considering the price at GC`s, have to keep an eye on our local Morrison`s....

Morrisons have some lovely ones in Wellingborough Lincs, I will buy some more soon (pay day Lol)
Sticki mine do better in pots here, you could always put a big pot in your border and move it in the winter. I think this one is in the biggest pot now so it will have to stay there.

Yes, I agree. I moved one into my border and it died...not enough shelter from the wind. I have two in the border, but in a much more sheltered spot. I think it's the wind more than the rain that gets them. In a pot you can move it in to more shelter during autumn and winter. I also think they look wonderful in pots.

That Acer really is tremendous Annie! Well shopped!

It looked nothing like this last year, it really has grown Karen. It came in one of those little bags.
