Thanks SL - The photo doesn't do them justice really!

21 Mar, 2012

 

Very nice! Inside or out?

21 Mar, 2012

 

They're outdoors PA - I'm undecided as to whether to lift them when I move or just get new,

21 Mar, 2012

 

I think I'd take them, if I moved I would take loads, I would be craning plants out of the garden lol. :o)

It's just that I'm led to believe that established clumps dislike disturbance.
Guess that the plan should be to take these, and buy more too!

ps; the Sutherlandia is in bud!
Check this out too..................

yes, I remember this one from last year...it's a true beauty!

Lift a big measured square clump Meanie....Then transplant the same measured square...Little disturbance then. Just find the same light conditions in the new garden. I should get mine this Autumn as I missed the order deadline. Widow Iris sounds better don't you think?

Must have plant Karen and Pimpernel!

Prefer Hermodactylus as it sounds so prehistoric!

Two highlights in one year? You are doing exceptionally well.
I'm not doing so well - dropped my camera. :-(

21 Mar, 2012

 

Hopefully there will be more to come Sticki!!

Bad news on the camera - is it fixable?

22 Mar, 2012

 

At a cost! But going away on Friday!

22 Mar, 2012

 

Big cost?

22 Mar, 2012

 

I'm assuming in the region of £150 cos that's what it was only last year, same problem ie lens error,but different cause, I think sand got in it then.

22 Mar, 2012

 

Ouch!

22 Mar, 2012

 

Exactly!

22 Mar, 2012

 

My Sutherlandia has suffered a little in the winter due to lack of heat but it's flowering well now, it's a little bare at the bottom though. :o) will check your link out.

22 Mar, 2012

 

Oh..Sorry Sticki. :( You need that camera, it works so well with you.

22 Mar, 2012

 

Thanks pimms, I'm very sad without it.

22 Mar, 2012

 

Have a nice break..Do you have a Camera to take with you?

22 Mar, 2012

 

Yes getting it sorted thanks pimms. Going to the lakes.

22 Mar, 2012

 

How nice...I will look for you on the Cam ;))

22 Mar, 2012

 

I hope not! I hate having my photo taken! Have you seen today's photos? I don't think he is in the lake district?!

22 Mar, 2012

 

I am on the weekly Cam..So only up to yesterday so far.

22 Mar, 2012

 

And that was definitely lakes?

22 Mar, 2012

 

No..He is on a break like You.....Scotland

22 Mar, 2012

 

Ah, I missed that vital bit of info when I was in Devon!

22 Mar, 2012

 

Lol...Lakelandeye to the Isle of Skye...I just created a TV hit

22 Mar, 2012

 

Skye?? Oh fabulous! He isn't there now, think it's southern Scotland??

22 Mar, 2012

 

SW..

22 Mar, 2012

23 Mar, 2012
