Polystychium Polydepharum

thats a good looking fern.

I bought this last year from Gardeners World Live, from Fernatics stand, seems to be doing well.

oooh i havent got my tickets yet ~ i must sort that out today or i will be paying a fortune!!

oh lovely, let me know when you are going :^)

i will do ~ what day are you going? the trouble is i work wed, thurs, fri mornings till 11 ~ in droitwich; so my option is to come after that; go for saturday [which i dont really want to do] or try to get a day off.

We are going on the Friday, then youve got all weekend to look at your plants havent you!!

yes thats true. OH is saying he will come so have to sort it out ~ more complicated now!!

Yes, me and hubby go together, nice day out! We have been on a Saturday before, not too bad really and on a Sunday, this is our 7th time!!

7th!!?? it must be good. sunday is not too busy??

I would say if the weather is nice obviously there will be alot outside around the gardens, last year it was raining so when we went around the gardens there was no one, lol. But i can remember it being busy if the weather is nice, but generally i would say quite busy anyway! Wednesday i would say could be the busiest as its the TV recording i think. :^)

ah, a day to avoid then!! thanks daylily ~ any other tips?

Hi Sticki, ive sent you a PM, if i think of anything else i will let you know :>)

We also take those plastic trolleys they sell there to put the plants in, but i think they do get on peoples nerves, but then loads of people have them!! And probably obvious but if you are walking round for about 6-7 hours, comfy shoes.

yes definitely the comfy shoes ~ mine are almost as good as my slippers!!

Oh thats good then, mind you i did wear quite high sandals last year and they were ok :^)

Are you watching Julia Bradbury? She is walking along my local footpaths

oh no i didnt, i watched 'Alan' on Love your Garden' was good but need to watch again, couldnt record it cos our Sky is broken. Might be able to watch Julia on 'catch up' tv.

we dont have sky ~ cant cos of the trees. it might be on iplayer. dotty daisy has done a blog on that garden cos she has been there ~ lovely photos. there was lots to take in.

Yes, it was a beautiful garden wasnt it. I will take a look at DD's blog. We've got Virgin box aswell but thats free because we have the phone and internet with them, so its quite good for 'catching up'.

i really like this catch up facility ~ on radio and tv, i dont always like whats on so if i can find something more interesting its much better.
actually if only i could catch up on all the things i havent done that would be even better.
