    Lidl-again what stars!


    I picked up climbers Handel and Swan Lake today for £1.49 each and I`m staggered at the value. I will be growing them along with clematis Montana Warwickshire Rose and A Seagull Rose over my little trellissed seating area.


    I hope and pray they will look as good as the pics I have found

    Completely different from my original plans of yellow and blue but how can one resist?



    I only hope I don`t kill them all.

    That`s what I most look forward to when I put up any roses I get-your nod of approval. Thankyou very much, it encourages me to also own up to having paid a small fortune for an excellent Geoff Hamilton Rose at the weekend too-I just couldn`t resist it-I`m going all pink in my old age.
