Hydrangea

This was one of those have to have buys from Sainsburys of all places, I love the mix of green and red on the flowers. Now in the seat corner and a bargain at £12.00

Hi Annella, lovely colour, but I think you and I must have a different idea of a bargain!, I would think that was quite expensive, especially from a supermarket, {could be the Scottish blood in me, lol,} Derek.

I though that too Derek, but didn't like to say!lol I suppose people from different parts of the country have different ideas of how much they want to pay for things and what is a bargain.

It's lovely - is the flower as big as it looks in the picture? I thought £12 was reasonable - obviously not the Scottish blood in me ;)

Hi Louisa, just realized we're both in Cheshire, must be the Cheshire blood in us both,lol.
Scottish, I wasn't being insulting or facetious, my Grandmother was Scottish, and I have a lot of relations around Airdrie and Coatbridge area, sorry if it sounded that way, Derek.

Such detail on every petal here.
Lovely to get a close up to appreciate it.

Derek, it's so nice to find someone else from Cheshire on here, there don't seem to be many. That's my one disappointment about GoY, I was hoping to find more gardeners local to myself.

The flowers are really big Scottish and so is the plant itself (nearly 2ft). A similar plant in the local garden centres would be between £15-£20 in Northants. Louisa there are not many Goyers near to me either but I have met up with two now, one lady who I see regularly and Louis who's garden I have visited :o))

Derek, I know what you meant, no offence taken. I too was poking fun at the Scots, we are known for being rather tight. I'm not the norm, that's why I'm always skint :)
Thanks Annella, I thought they looked big. The bigger the better with Hydrangeas I think.

Wow that is a beauty, and I agree a good price at that size!!
