    I have lots and lots of Crocosmia. I have been trying - unsuccessfully - to give them away. I could have sent some to you :snorky: :snorky:

        I have Lucifer and orange crocosmias ( not sure which variety these are ). You are very welcome to as many as you want. Just pm me your address and I'll pop some in the post to you.

            Tidied up the border over the fence, it on the garage site where excess plants / unwanted plants go, mainly sedums - geraniums - crocosmia - Iris and hacked a branch off a rose cause it attacked me :paladin:, I'll finish cutting back the roses later.

            Had a gander around the garden, didn't realise how many weeds were growing so pulled some out. Thought I'll tidy one of the border edges with the half moon, got carried away and ended up doing all the border edges :hapfeet:

            Fed up of picking litter up around the garden / garage site blown in by the wind. Can't understand why some people are so lazy they can't put rubbish in the bin :mad:

            Think I'll start some of my February sowing tomorrow :) its close enough.

                      I find that it's sometimes easier to sell things than give them away. Pot them up, wait till there's some growth on them and then people will want them - if it appears to be a bargain. :blue thumb:

                            Yesterday I did very little in the garden but Michael came round and cleared all the debris from the storms (filled his truck with branches) and then continued with pruning fruit trees (I don't climb trees nowadays :old:). He finished the apples and just has the pears to do. Then clean out some more gutters.

                            I did something out there - I took him cups of tea. :heehee:

                            Now that he has cleared things I can get out and do work - when the weather is suitable.
