Lovely pots @Perki - I like the shape. Shame about the third - but you could have paid first and asked them to put them away!
Nice hibiscus @Michael Hewett ! As I showed in pics in thread "whats looking good June", my keen gardening friend and I spent many hours yesterday...
Not in my garden... But visited Farmyard Nurseries again today, and their stock areas were looking great [ATTACH] Most of the staff were away at...
