Cheers mate :-)

last thing for me to do mate, the big uns are in lol - now it's the little flowers to add - tomorrow shopping with the better half lol

Lol good luck mate and have fun shopping :-)

Its looking healthy , I made 6 new plants from some of that black grass today , I do know it's name but it's the wrong time of the night to remember it !

Lol Amy yes I know what you mean about the name, that's good splitting it, it's good for it. Cheers

very nice SL :o)

I wish either of you could remember the name of the black grass.
It's astonishing!

Mouldy it could be Ophiopogon planiscapus Nigrascens ,check it out in google

Snap, San! I was just looking for it on the RHS site and it has an AGM (Award of Garden Merit) - I bet Mouldy wishes he hadn't asked for the name now - bit of a long name to remember!

lol shirley is a mouth full isnt it, but love it and might try this myself this year :o))

Don't buy one San, I'll divide a piece of mine for you ... :o)

are you sure shirley, thats so kind thankyou :o)

lol yes thats the one Sandra, its a lovely one to have, even pink flowers that develop into jet black berries...
cheers every one :-)

You're welcome, San - hope Surreylad doesn't mind me intruding on this thread! ...

that's ok Shirley any help is always welcome that's what i say :-)

yes sorry SL, we women get carried away lol

Couldn't agree more, Surreylad ... :o)

lol :-)

Thanks guys.
Must memorise that one.
Just sort of casually drop it into the conversation down the pub, as you do. Lol.

lol :-)

Is it a deliate grass?

No it's a strong hardy grass mate, out all winter under snow as well...

That's good news, but not for footie, no? Lol.
Just thinking...black grass, white ball, viewers chucking the remote at the telly, thinking the colour was wonky. ;-)

Lol yes mate :-))

Did removals, decades ago, & wound up a YTS telling him if he didn't carry a telly level the colour would pour out of the valve. Lol.

Lol we had one when I was a mechanic told him to go to stores for a box of sparks as the grinder had run out :-)

LOL, Surrey!!! Never heard that one before.
Ahhh, the simple joys of bamboozling & belittling young folk & kids, eh?
Striped or tartan paint, skirting board ladders, sky hooks, long waits, left-handed screwdrivers...
Some enterprising person could have made a fortune, if they'd opened a shop & sold that sort of merchandise.
Could have charged a premium for embarassment saved, too! ;-)

Lol yes the old long wait haven't heard that in ages :-)

You had a long wait for it. Ouch!!!

Boom boom :-)

Blimey, there's an echo in here...echo in here...echo...echo. ;-)
