Tree Peony

I saw that offer Sk but decided to go for the penstemon - £17.90 for 18. I do wish they wouldn't say buy 12 get 6 free. Hope your plants arrive in good condition - and enjoy the pork.

SK what is a Gecko,hope you enjoyed your yorkshire puds & pork.

Hi Clarice its a lizard, she is very pretty! the pork and yorkshires were lovely even though i say so myself LOL

Ginelle, i have lots of Penstenoms and have grown some from seed this year always fancied a Tree Peony but they are quite expensive so when i saw this i jumped at them! Will let you know what they're like when they come

I certainly will Sk. I sowed some penstemons as well as other seeds this year but as I mixed all the labels up I have no idea if they are growing or not! Thought I'd take the easier option and get the plants.

Sounds like a good buy to me, Sew. Hope they're in good nick and grow well for you.

I love the gecko's. Until recently, I kept bearded dragons and they're super pets. I only parted with them as I needed the space for a cot for my granddaughter. My friend has them though, so I can still visit, lol.

Find the roots of your ivy and chop the stems off. The runners will die off naturally and you'll be able to carefully pull them out of your hedge. Keep your eye on the roots though as they'll sprout again. Doc says though that if the roots are big, drill a hole, fill with SBK (?), plug the hole with putty and that will kill it. Assuming you want to kill it of course.

oh thanks for that Llew will do that i think, but whats SBK?

SBK i googled it its a weedkiller that doesn't kill grass good for woody things!

Jolly good, lol.

WOHOO another gecko we have them too, beautiful creatures,and ours are leopard geckos, the crickets arent that good il agree sometimes freak me out but they also eat locusts and wax worms amongst things but wax worms are very fattening and they will soon ignor the other food if they get these too much

Sewingkilla, we have a tree peony, had it 3 years now, and they are beautiful. glad you chose to get one of them.

I hope you enjoyed your meal :o)
I bought a tree paeony last year. I'm looking forwars to seeing how it grows now. You can put photos of yours I'd like to see it.

Hi Mookins, we bought her off my husbands niece who rescued her from a so called 'friend' who couldn't afford to replace the heat mat so was going to let her die!!! Some people!! niece replaced heat mat with heat lamp which broke last night!!! Hubby went out first thing (i was panicking she would be dead in morning) bought new heat mat and a black lamp, so she's nice and cosy. Have ordered a book from Amazon so i know whats what. Will post a photo if she ever comes out of log LOL

Sewingkilla! I've sent off for these too!! Lol!!! I'm a bit worried about how big it'll get and I only need 1, so will have to find some poor (saps! lol!) um, souls! to have them!!! Lol!!
