Pieris japonica 'Little Heath'

I finally chose where this shrub should live ... in a lovely pot from my dearly loved neighbour who has passed away.

That pot is really beautiful.

I've this pieris too. Shirley. It's pretty.
The pot is lovely, and a really nice gesture to remember your neighbour too. I'm sorry to hear your sad news.

Chris, it is also very heavy!

Kate, it really is a stunning plant isn't it? Our neighbour passed away just over a year ago, the place was empty for a very long time and we now have new neighbours. Thus far, they have done no gardening, Bindweed is coming through from their side again ... :o((

Another good un. Sorry about the bind weed & non gardening neighbours.

Josie, since posting this photo, the neighbours have had a gardener round and my OH reckons a lot of the lawn has been dug up! I'm not tall enough to see over the six foot boundary fence . . . :o)

I do hope you've managed to sort out the bindweed, Shirley? It must be causing you some stress.

Kate, all I can really do is spray the Bindweed with a weed killer, not something I like to do, but needs must!

The trouble is that the wretched stuff grows in a flower border next door, the whole length of their garden and is now creeping its way into our garden.

Their front garden is a mass of weeds now, my poor ex neighbour would be heartbroken to see it ... :o(
