Leucothoe Red Lips up close

I love this plant, my wish list is getting bigger and bigger!

aaah awesome - that's the little plant in my woodland pot - couldn't remember name til now :)))))))))))))

That's great Paul...glad you found it! I like Leuchothoe's Rose. I have a few now. They are fairly insignificant in summer..good 'fillers' but in the autumn they start to shine.

:)))))) I thought it was photinia when I seen it in GC - had to have it - I feel people are finding out I love red :D

Yes, you really do....and it is so fantastic with green!

Just got it today M. We have slightly acid soil though, and I feed everything ericaceous with Azalea and Rhododendron food every year in the spring.

Yes it is Karen - :)))))))

Lovely plant and a great name

Ah, good morning Annie...good weekend? I can't get myself going today, it's blowing a gale here. I have a clematis in the car but can't face going out to plant it!

It was a nice weekend Karen, yesterday was quite warm. My pot collection is growing fast .The bottom garden is still very dry so any divisions down there will have to wait for now. I might have to give in and put the sprinkler on later this week, crazy when you think it is nearly the end of October. Calm and cold outside today.

Quite different to here yet again. Well, you'd better get on with the dividing and potting up....a few unsettled months ahead for you now. I remember that feeling of living somewhere that is no longer your home in your heart.....but then the feeling of moving in to your new home is really brilliant isn't it....I can still remember how happy I was when we first came here. Still am really...most of the time!

That is doing well....
