I like the froggy too. I want one. Suppose I need a pond to get one ! Like the first petunia SL. Not keen on the black ones.

The Eucomis is fantastic SL.!!

Gorgeous Photo`s S`lad, I do agree, it takes an age to pop them all on individually and lots of them are exactly the same as the other years so I tend to pop mine into a blog as well..
Very handsome frog, I have its relatives here, no slugs though,just wish they`d get the snails as well...

I don't mind spiders but I hate snakes and slugs, not keen on worms either!

29 May, 2012

 

oddly i'm not worried about many things, even spiders, but there is this big one well huge is more like it, in my shed and when i'm potting on i can feel him/her looking at me i can almost see that evil grin .... :-))

29 May, 2012

 

i can see it now, it makes me laugh!!! sorry!!

my sister hates them and wont touch them so she sucks them up the hoover but she wont have one of the type that has a clear cylinder cos she thinks it will look at her through there!!!

29 May, 2012

 

That's ok it's an odd feeling i keep turning every few minutes to look at it... wonder if it's got bovver boots on :-)
Lol that's made me smile ...

29 May, 2012

 

you could put a picture in your shed of a much larger spider with bovver boots on to see if it scared the real one off???

29 May, 2012

 

Lol it'd probably eat the pic it's that big and 'well ard' as my girls would say :-))

29 May, 2012

or put him in the olympics!!!!!

29 May, 2012
