Japanese Anemone

Lovely to see, and also a little sad as they are one of the last things to flower. Mind you, they continue for weeks :)

Love 'em Dawn . . . and my A. wild swan has been in flower since June!

Yes Karen. Like when the Sedum begins to turn red. Whooo Sheila, that sounds like a good one to have, going to Google.

Aren't they lovely, you've just reminded me I had a white in the wood hope the mad chainsaw man hasn't flattened it!! Yep he's got a new one Dawn.

I like them too. Haha so no doubt you have a bigger and better chainsaw! These men and lack of respect for plants drives me mad, I'm going off on one and probs your white Anemone in the wood is (fingers crossed) unscathed!

Exactly the same chainsaw Dawn insurance sent it within two days!! can't complain at all, anemones ok phew no flowers though think its just been to dry in there this year.

Have the police come back to you to say if the robbers have been caught? Hope you're OK after all the upset, puts you onedge doesn't it. Glad the Anemone is OK:)

We did have a letter Dawn, thought they knew who it might be a young lad who was out on bail with a tag who'd burgled some houses on our road a couple of years ago, would he really be that stupid!!, said they 'd paid him a visit and hadn't found any of our property but he was back in prison so obviously found something mmmm think they might be fobbing us off, mind you with the cutbacks don't know how they're expected to solve any crimes not allowed anyone to take fingerprints which would surely get the culprits off the streets much quicker!

Its a farse isn't it. Glad he's 'away' again.
