i wish you did to sanbaz i could look at your garden to.i dont drink beer lol but i know what you mean sueb.ive sold out of tickets for my garden much quicker than last year so its all good for the hospice and me i guess.ow i kept going bye moaning a lot and stopping a lot realy.ive loved it but time like you say for my me selfish time lol.i cant weight for a year or to till every last detail and to settle in.going to get a white wisteria as doctor bob advised.should change the whole look of it.maybe seven years come to think of it lol.i wonder does a wisteria take seven years to flower every time you move it or just from when its young ? i mite put a passion flower in the mix just for some instant colour and for dinamics though any sugestions i will definatly mull over though laymens terms please if possible.i insist on going back im even going to see if he will have an open day.i dont mind being at his to do it.i love wafling on ask amy if you dont believe me lol.the open day is the 21st of june and your ofcourse your all welcome.anyway perhaps im wafling to much thanx for your support take care bye for now.

NP.. How about a Solanum ( purple ) or a white one .. they are very vigorous climbers and flower for weeks most of the summer in fact ...much longer than wisteria , you could mix it with the Wisteria ..
NP .. I,m really annoyed that your garden is open on FATHERS DAY , our daughter has arranged to take us to Duxford museum that day as dads treat .. I,m so pleased that I had the chance to see it before . :o)

4 Jun, 2009

 

dont suppose you could send me a picture please could you amy ? dont be anoyed you can come and see it anytime you know you can.just give me a bit of notice is all.museum sounds great you can do bothe.be better infact as that day hopefully there will be loads of people so giving each quality time wont be easy.on your own will be different ok take care amy bye for now x

Use the park and ride NP .
We use to make a point of going punting once a year on the river camb with a picnic it cost about £ 10 for the day , some one told me it now costs something like £ 80 .. for an hour .. ouch ..

Did you like the pic. of the Solanum ?

5 Jun, 2009

 

thats a good idea amy good thinking batman i doubt £80 each no one would go on it.id walk for that and hitch .i could get a limo for that as theres 6 of us lol.i looked at your plant its very nice but i found something today thats is closer and more like what i want.i cant remember what its called but swallow aquatics in east harling has a lot of the rarer stuff and sometimes its good and sometimes its not and at the moment its very good.i found a climer that fits all the criterier and a very special extra.as you know im putting a white wisteria one corner and blue the other.this plant is a climber is deciduace excuse my spelling it has almost purple poppy like flowers but it looks just like wisteria and grows quicker.people will say wear did that flower come from touch wood excuse the pun lol.thanx amy take care im gonna go look at the park and ride bye bye xx
