this is an excellent do-er Barb, mine finished ages ago...

thanks Orgratis, :-)

lol

are they different from the others with regards to planting Spritz? I just dig a hole and put um in..approx 2 x depth of bulb, OG obvioulsy.. this is a good time to do it... works for me... my tree lilies will hopefully be going in today.. :-)

Thanks Avis, and yes i know just what you mean, it only seems like yesterday that i was pregant with her and already she has started school... blink and you'll miss it so they say :-)

not at all, my big one has never flowered either, think i am cutting it back the wrong time of year to be honest lol and it does'nt matter at all... anyway siging off now, gonna go and get madam to bed TTFN xx

yep think we are going in the oppisit direction lol

they are beautys well done you

it's really pretty is'nt it, does it flower?

mmmmm sounds very nice... i am hoping the wether is not going to be bad tomorrow so i can go out and get a few bits done... i have some new babies to plant, tree lilies - 2 types, Athyrium one red one burgandy for my woodland bed... which needs a good digging over and a bit of shuffling before i can do that, and my much waited for Acanthus spinosus... or AKA next door cat's deter.... i am hoping anyway, the blasted thing as poohed all in my front garden again..... it really gets on my nerves.....

your welcome x looks like you are doing a fine job anyway ;-)

aaahhh theres my answer,,, 12" think i will have to keep my eyes open for this one would look great in the woodland area, on the egdes somewhere could do with some evergreen cover. does it spread outwards Spritz? it seems more pinky than the big one... i like :o)

very nice Spritz. I remeber a blog/question about these a year or so ago, they are the ones that do stay small, but how big is small?

Lots of nice texture... what are you going to fill the gaps with?

I think Tt already did, i gave her the same advice on this a while ago, unless i am mistaken i think she did cut an paste it to her blog, with my permisson ofcourse :D

It will be if i get the chance to plant them tomorrow... :-)

Hi Bubblesok, i think you are a very understanding neighbour, and i can fully see why this would be upsetting for you i would be furious, and i doubt many of us would find it easy to be so gracious. i think pinning a note on the fence is a good way to try to resolve this... you know if you do not get the fence moved back after a certain amount of time the land will become thiers regardless of what your deed says... i am not 100% sure on this so it is best to check, Andrearicher is the member you need to speak to she will know...

oh dear.... you can always plant it in a large pot instead of the bed, they can become an pain, like a lot of the others mentioned.... did you get my PM Spritz?

not all anemone's are thugs San, i have 'whirlwind' which is a white one, and that seems ok at the moment... do you know which you have?

Hi Spritz, i have a few of your thugs too, although most thugs i serve an ASBO and they inhabit pots... the red clover i just know as 'elweedio' i am constantly pulling it out particually my front garden and it encorrages rust too don't like this one at all :-/ i never planted it i am in agreement this is officially a weed...
I too have mascari thuggin about a bit, but i don't mind it too much to be honest... a few others that need national health warnings that i have are my white violets... Ajuga, solidago, crocrosmia and not forgetting houttuynia... but once served ASBO's in a pot worth while plants to grow...

lol.... especially one with swine flu.... lol she is a little princess really ;-) been ever so good despite not being not very well... she is back to school tomorrow Horay! i can get back out in the garden... i got a lovely little extra b-day pressy today, my fern and tree lily collcetion came :-) HAPPY BUNNY!

this is lovely... i have one of these, maybe a different variety, but mine flowered much ealier in the year.... lovely leaf cololur and form too.... i know you will love this plant :-)

Hi Ian, i think there are a few people behaving in a way that is not beneficial to GOY. Yourself excluded from that comment ofcourse :-) maybe my 'rude' word was flagged it has been removed, before i had the chance to do it myself... as have some of the other 'not so nice comments' made by others, wether due to flagging or the members responsible deleting/editing their comments themselves... i take your point about flagging bullys, but as i said i think a better way of dealing with them is to expose them and stand up to them, which is all i have done here... i am sorry to any other members that have not made these nasty comments, if anything i have said has upset you. I am an upfront person that would prefer to deal with things in the open, rather than the back biting that is obviouly going on in PM's at the moment. I think if my comments are actually read properly it is clear to see what i am saying and that i intend no offence to anyone.... anyone choosing to twist what i say and choosing to take in a completely different way to which it was intended, clearly is the person that has a problem.....This is not an isolated situation i am sad to say,,,, and i think this fact highlights the problems that are current on GOY and the point i have been trying to make....in the nicest possible way!....Anyway, i have things to do today, so i will say goodbye for now... not storming off or sulking at all just want to move on......x

Sorry Paul just realised i missed your last comment, glad you like the seeds :-) and Sue i agree there is no need for this. I thought we were having an adult disscussion where everyone is intitled to an opnion agree or disagree, obviously not.... I believe the best way to overcome bullys is to stand up to them!

No offense intended??? i would hate to be on the recieving end when you do intend to offend Lincs. luckly i am quite thick skinned and could'nt care less if you like me or not, there are plenty of people that actually know me and do - i do not respond well to bullys, hense my 'rude' word. my aplologies for anyone offended by that, and thanks Ajay & Peter for removing it. I believe Peter just requested that these comments not get personal. and yes Stephen i do agree that is why i tend to avoid most of them, i thought this site was different, adults that can discuss things in a grown up way, i see now i got that wrong. Like your self I think the data base section on this site is second to none, so i will continue to use this, but as for the rest of it well, not really for me.

Really Lily? I thought you were more for the Jemery Kyle show....lol

i think i can speak for myself thanks Spritz...I don't actually need this.

Enlightend i think is a better word for how i feel at the moment.... like i said hypocrisy and back biting.... nite all xx

Lily i said 'mention' so again another little twist

there has not been much warmth on here for quite some time, hypocrisy and back biting more like!

Depends on what the 'Need or distress' is Lily, if it something that is not likely to offend or upset then i have no problem about you mentioning it in a blog...but i question if writing a blog about it is the right way to go.... I doubt many of you would want to read a blog on some of the things that distress me on a day to day basis at the moment, so i choose to discuss these issues on PM with thoughs i am close to.... i think the key word here is 'appropriate'... but yet it seems that you chose to reed my comments the way you want them to sound... this is not a friendly web site anymore...I have not said anything nasty about anyone, just that i think the level of non-garden related blogs are spoiling what was a friendly and enjoyable web site... and i am sorry that you don't agree with me, but i am intitled to that opnion and as long as i am voicing it in a reasonable way, which i think i have, i really don't see what your problem is... and for the record the comments on the X factor was a converstion that had progressed from a comment... 'i am going to watch the X factor now' on a gardening blog that i wrote myself...which lasted for about 10 comments, not a blog about the X factor! there is quite a big difference Lily..... see how much you can twist what i am saying here....

Hi all, i do put mine in the compost bin, but i keep them in a bag and feed them in bit by bit so they are not all going in at the same time, i have found this works really well, i have also tried the black bag with holes in i found they were good enough for mulch the following year.... p.s i have a lot of acidic plants anyway...
