Cotinus Dusky Maiden

Another one in my favourites for next time! :))

I've taken my 'Young Lady' out and potted it up for a move! I love Cotinus. but Grace and Golden Spirit will have to stay...I can easily get new ones.

A good idea to get all the ones out you can Karen, saves confusion once the sale goes through.
You are going to need a set of wheels on that greenhouse of yours ;)
I bought a new Grace yesterday. I've no home for her yet but I think I'm going to get rid of the Hydrangea in the side garden to make room.

Much nicer than a hydrangea! None of mine flowered this year, so they all came out. I'm not a fan really, don't know why I planted them. :s

Neither am I Karen, but mum likes them. She hasn't noticed the other 3 are gone - I've been gradually getting rid!

They (hydrangeas) remind me of Bertie Basset.
Why are you both looking at me like that for?
It was just a thought that popped into my noggin.

Now you mention it Mould.....

Just had another thought.
Same colours, too, did you notice?

Yes, those are the ones in the box I don't like.... Yuk!!!

Aye, so it was you who shoved those slabbery ones back in the box, then? Lol.

All slimed, and now all the sweeties are blue!

Not me - it was the dog ;)

Oh....gag....bleugh! That'll teach me to eat sweeties!

S'pose you blame the poor dog for passing wind, too?, (Mouldy asks, deadpan).

Oh definitely! Is there any other reason for having a dog?

Cleaning dishes. ;-)

Well obviously...forgot about that...saves a heap of money on running the dishwasher.

Cleaning floors. ;-)

Now you're being silly....everyone knows a dogs paws make more mess than it can clean up with its tongue!

Spilt dinners.
Disliked food.
Tidbits.

Slippers & newspaper fetchers.
A sympathetic ear.
A footwarmer or rest.
Something to blame for an infestation of fleas.
The defence rests. Lol.

Ok, but a sympathetic ear? Not with my JRT! She has no empathy whatsoever! I need a retriever!

You need to be able to stand up to JRT!
You're the boss, remember? Lol.

Oh, no worries there...it's a challenge I rise to every single day!....well, most days!

Yeah, I'll bet.
One look at those mournful eyes & you're lost!
May as well admit defeat, there's no shame in it. Lol.
