DIANTHUS MEMORIES

Id like to have some but Im too far and cnnot find them in greece.

Hi Bik, how's the weather in Greece? We're in a heatwave!:-))

hot :)

You're used to it there, here, it's been suggested that workers should be sent home if temperature is above 30 degrees! :-))

I'm very tempted by these Ba, as I often think I don't have enough 'smellies' in the garden . . . will look up Whetmans, thanks :)

You're welcome Sheila, they stand up too unlike some others which seem to flop down here:-)

Have just looked on the website and given them an order, so thank you very much Ba!!

You're welcome Sheils, it's a lovely website isn't it? I've just been looking at countrygardenroses.co.uk a fantastic rose website I was looking at floribunda roses, some lovely ones.... I have a little list:-))

oh do stop it . . .

:-))

I have now potted up 10 lovely new Dianthus, Ba, but they are causing marital strife! OH says I should have put them in terracotta pots, "otherwise they will bake" (whoever pots things up into terracotta?). Then he thinks they should be shaded from the sun, but surely they need sun to grow??? I always thought I was a gardener, but obviously I know nothing :((

Ear plugs on the way Sheila:-) Some of mine are in a large metal container and I don't think I lined it, others in a plastic pot and all thriving. Are your too small for flowers yet? I can't wait for you to smell them:-))

Thanks Ba . . . I think one of mine is in bud. Whatevs, they'll be going in the ground next week, in a SUNNY place, and I look forward to deeply inhaling :))

:-)
