    It's a good job I took my tomatoes out of the greenhouse the other week, because I went to Farmyard nurseries and went a bit mad...

    White callicarpa, Acca fellowiana (to pollinate my variegated one), amaryllis belladonna, kniphofia Loki (with a flowering spiranthes that had seeded into it), multiple herbs to send my daughter, salvias omeiana, ulignosa, purple velvet, grevillea Mt Tamborithra, Linaria triornithophora, and a couple of chrysanths - Marion and Jules de something.
    Oh dear. :rolleyespink:
    Well a lot of the herbaceous ones were just £2.99, so it seemed rude not to get them...

      Nice collection @CarolineL :)

      Stop chewing the top of that watering can,:biggrin: I tried to buy a new one of those this year and couldn't find them anywhere.
      The foxes have had a chew of mine.:frown::roflol:

      @pete not guilty re watering can! That's the cheaper version of the Haws, and it seems to be breaking up. The more expensive one with the brass end for the rose is made of a much more durable plastic.

        Couldn't resist this poinsettia. The red colour is deeper than on photo. Love despite my family describing it as if it:
        version one - got under the radiation;
        version two - builders spilled the paint :):):)
