    Thanks Lindsay, I'm glad you like the sinks, and that's what GC is all about..the passing on of ideas and info!!:snork:
    Here's the second sink:

    And the two shallow pots planted up at the same time.

    Hi Scrungee, always good to hear from you. Yes, I do have Teasels, Celandines and "wild" Forget-Me-Nots in my garden. I like Teasels, and so do the Bees, plus they're [to me] a stately architectural plant which when covered in frost looks fantastic. Celandines also attract the Bees, but I have let them loose for this season and when they've finished flowering I'll take most of them up. The Forget-Me-Nots are not so "wild" as they are one of my favourite plants [I have no idea why!!} so they are a welcome sight each year.


    Hi Sumbody, Yes, I have Snails!!!, but I also have Thrushes, Blackbirds and Frogs and they do a grand job of banqueting on them. I also have in the walk around border two large pots of Hostas and they never get bothered by the Snails.

    Hi Fern, glad you like it, and yes it is full of wild life!!:snork:
