New purchases :)

My daughter and granddaughter took me to a nursery that only opens to the public a few times a year. I was like a child in a sweet shop.

I can image you Gill with your trolley stamping your feet like a child shouting " I want it, I want it " Lol ... I love your choice of plants :o)

Whenever I say 'I want' my daughter and now my granddaughter tell me 'you can't always have what you want!' :)

I seem to be drawn towards red/brown coloured plants. Red Dragon is already planted and looked beautiful in the rain today.

Another Heuchera too Gee. I see Plantagogo are going to stocking Sweet Tea shortly, I think I shall be sending for one of those soon. I too can never go in a GC and come out empty handed Gee. Very blustery wind here today. The wood pigeons are eating the red flowers on the Hawthorn and clinging like a cowboy to a bucking bronco. It's a big old tree so no matter.They are making it lighter. We will get the tree men back late November to take it back a bit when the leaves are off.

Thanks for the thought, Amy, I knew someone on GoY had the plant but never thought to ask.

Dorjac, I have just wandered round my garden to see if I have a spare Sweet Tea. I am not sure - it may be Ginger Ale babies I have in a tray! They do look slightly lighter than my potted Sweet Tea. I will have another look when it is less windy and damp out there. Everything is getting blown about here so I can imagine your poor pigeons having a rough ride :) The new heuchera was Hollywood and I have divided it a little already as I always check for the dreaded grubs! The astilbe was divided into 3 too :)
