Snails DO live in the trees!

Hi Pixi..
Great blog for GoYpedia Pruning :o)))

Heh not that good..its a bit wonky! Just found another 10 snails in the garden! Its neverending!!!!!!!!

Oooh, I love that Ivy wall Pixi! :D

...Snail Lobbing...the next Olympic Sport? ;)

Hahah it should be theres enough of us doing it! Got another 6!

Yes should be a new event.... nice one Pixi :-))

Been doing the same today Pixi, chopped the Pyracantha and the Mahonia back as they were getting out of hand.
Love your ivy with the mirror.
Glorious sunshine at last.

Thats the bit i dont like doing in my garden, cutting the hedges :(

Looking lovely Pixi:) x

everything green has grown so much this year dont you think pixi, not alot else though.
snails, we expect to find on the ground but like you iv seen them up trees, high up walls, wherever they can eat our plants really :o((

It's unbelievable how high they will climb,Pixi..think we are all finding them in unexpected places! My Ivy has grown so much too,as all the foliage has..Can't even get near mine yet,for all the other stuff in front of it..Nice to be able to get out thogh,in the freash air and sunshine :o)

yes SL! lol
Thanks Stroller..yes nice to see the sun for awhile :)
I dont like it much either Calrice..got a blister on my hand from cutting with the secateurs!!!!!
Thanks Nana :))
Yes San too much green! Though a i have a few things blooming.
The snails live in my tree! Hate the damn things!
I got them up there ,under plants , in pots , on the gate , everywhere really..I really HATE them!

Sounds like you had fun lobbing those snails Pixi!
Great bit of pruning too - my garden still a bit too wet to do anything drastic - so painted up some new trellis and will get it put on the fences tomorrow. Have told Lee (my son) I need a hand - that went down well :))

You've been working hard. Take care on that ladder lol :o)

lol yes I did..nearly fell too haha!
ty Mr Hywel :))

Oh well done Pixi, its obviously been a day for the big jobs, I`ve been cutting hedges and pruning today as well, as to the snails, I`m afraid all mine get the "Order of the Boot", I learnt years ago that if you lob them the beggars come back and bring their friends with them.....

Yeah I know but i like doing it lol..i was putting them into jars and once full just putting the lid on tight and into the wheely bin! Need to get back to doing that!!!!!!!

I never get slugs or snails in my garden ... I'm really really lucky... Just a big ginger cat and the occasional hedgehog!

I've got lots of pruning to do and cutting back ... Especially the spikey pyracanthus .. I've got loads and I always end up getting stabbed ... But its gotta be done they are taking over!

There are so many snails and slugs this year Pixi..A gardener friend of mine told me that they find their way back home even if you deposit them a mile away....I have still to test this theory...lol :-)

Just put armour on Cheep :) Just picked up 10 more snails this morning..maybe the rain washes them off the tree..coz that's where they all were..well the ones I found!
Yep Richard..think you are right..into the jars they go..lid on tight..when full lob into wheely bin! I've tried everything..but still they come grrrrrrr :)

lol Pixi - do love that ivy wall - really stunning. We had loads of snails and slugs on our fence - grrrrr

Its a nightmare isnt it Paul..some folk dont get any! No fair!:)))))))))))))))) Do you like the mirror in the middle of the Ivy now?

yes Pixi - it has a somewhat illusion of plants in the middle too !!

well done pixi, glad i havent got anything i need ladders for though lol :-)

Yes Pual it does!
Thanks Leigh :)
