          Wow! You certainly work at speed, Loli.

          I have a mental imagine of you planting your box hedging at the speed of Benny Hill at the end of his programmes. I'm probably not far wrong. :) :)

                  :biggrin:....I did start off like Benny Hill @kindredspirit you're right,but I soon ended up more like Julie Walters' Mrs Overall:biggrin:...

                  Thank you all for your kind comments :dbgrtmb:..

                  I have a few Buxus spare so I'm using some of them to replace smaller ones in another part of the garden and then I'm going to pot some up to have a go at Topiary:dbgrtmb:

                    Finally got the Roses ordered...I'm not changing my mind again:rolleyespink:

                    3 X The Mayflower..

                    3 X Heritage..

                    3 X Compte de Chambord

                    3 X Wildeve...

                    I really loved the 'Whiter Shade of Pale' but being a Hybrid Tea Rose the growth habit may have looked odd with the 'shrub' roses..might go nice in a big container on the patio though;):dbgrtmb:

                                I suppose girls like pink. :) :)
