Hellebore

I love The Range, mainly for craft supplies but I have had quite a few plants from there too, I found this little beauty today :-), labelled as orientalis red hybrid clearly not red or single like the picture showed but hey I'm not complaining lol, love it :-)

Well, well, well, I know they have a small garden bit, I got some plant pot clay feet from there last year, much cheaper than the garden centre. I didnt realise they did plants. That looks brilliant. Was it cheap?

Thankyou girls :-)
£4.99 Dawn bargain I think, we went to B&Q after and theirs were £9.99 and no doubles.
Is it Gralew I'll have to try that I like popcorn :-), they do seem to look after their plants don't they every time I go they're watering,I've had a couple of nice euphorbias in the past and their 5 climbers for a tenner are brill!!! I had several clematis from that offer last year all doing great.

Their clems are a bargain.......OH pots them on, and plants them when the roots are down.

Lol Kathy. Well I went to Morrisons today. Ended up with 3 winter flowering heathers for £1 each and they had LOADS of climbers for £2 each, I know they are small but looked very healthy. So purchased Clematis Vit. Polish Spirit, Vitc. 'Étoile Violette' and C. Montana Elizabeth. I'll keep them in the greenhouse until the frosts are passed :-)

The best thing to do is send OH for a coffee Dd ;-)
Now Morrisons is somewhere I never go Dawn mainly as I worked there as store cashier for years and shopping takes far to long, a lot of the old bunch are still there so I have to have a natter lol, I do my shopping online now. You got some bargains there!!!! I have the Montana Elizabeth its gorgeous, mines just coming into leaf its always so covered in flowers you can barely see the leaves!!!!

Dont blame you for not going Kathy, when shopping, I like to be done asap, hate it, the plants in the trolley cheer me up though, I treat them as a kind of bonus to myself for doing the dreaded shop. Im pleased Cl. Elizabeth is a good one, cant wait for it to flower.

I started shopping at Asda online last summer when Rob had his knee op and couldn't drive, I don't drive,never looked back wish I'd discovered it before its so easy, they always pick things I'd choose myself and I've only had to complain once when they sent an out of date chicken which they refunded me for immediately, I certainly don't miss it, Christmas was great someone else doing that huge shop for me and not having to fight the crowds lol :-)

That sounds a great idea, I should try it. The Christmas shop is such a nightmare, imdint know why I hate shopping so much but I do. how is Rob now after the op.

He's not bad Dawn thankyou, back at work now on light duties,think it'll be a while before its back to normal though, its going the way it should but a slow process,there was a small piece of bone they thought they may have to re-operate on to file it down, it rubbed on a nerve every time he walked ,ouch, but its worn down on its own,he's been on tramadol for the pain but was worried he was becoming a bit addicted so told me to hide them all, he was foul for a couple of weeks but fine now, just takes ibuprofen if it plays him up,he has managed to do some digging on the allotment this week so it must be feeling better.

Omg, what a pain, excuse the pun. Sounds very painful, I can imagine the pressure for you too lol, men and incapacity do not mix,at least hes back at work now, joking apart, glad hes on the mend.
