Sunny day here so started work on my planned alpine bed; turned a few bags of grit/gravel into the soil and laid a weed membrane. Slightly...
I sympathise @Clydesdalestu - my previous (rented) house was similar, a lovely little fisherman's cottage with very ugly patio paving in the small...
We were out for a friend's birthday last night, so a quiet day pottering about outside in the winter sun was definitely needed today! Planted a...
I got a vitopod propagator for Christmas, which is made by the same people as the geopod I think. I really like the propagotor itself - it fits...
Thanks all - looking at google images I think @noisette47 is spot on. It is a glorious plant; I have a very poor sense of smell (useful for...

Brilliant thread :) Having spent this year finding the garden and then throwing around as many annuals as possible to get a nice show on short...
Aw thanks all! Lovely day - walk, pub roast, board games this evening. Have a new bird feeder and the promise of a stepped planter come the...

Sunny day here too - and my day off after a 10 day stretch in work! Probably going to head to the garden centre for a wander round this...

Thanks all. The local garden centre has a Christmas market this weekend so I'll combine that with some pot shopping :)That's good to know...
