Some considered shopping!

I am being very restrained and only buying plants that I wish to grow in my back garden. Using them to cheer up the front for the time being. Here I have a lovely Almond Tree which will always be in a pot as they cannot tolerate ANY clay. Luckily it is grafted on to a dwarfing rootstock. Then there is a patio (dwarf rootstock again) Cherry ‘Stellata’, a little prostrate Rosemary on a short single stem and a Coronilla Valentina ‘Citrina’, which has always been a favourite of mine for its scent and extremely long flowering period. This one is a bit straggly and will need a frame to tie it to. You can prune them, but they don’t respond well to hard pruning as I discovered to my cost with my last one. Smell reminds me of Jonquils. They require some shelter. All but the. Pro ills will eventually go in the back garden.
