A thank you for my gifted plant

That's a good plant, with lots of new shoots :o)

You can see the new growth, very nice gift......

Lovely gift.

How lovely Jacquie!! what a nice surprise and very kind of someone.

Perhaps it's from a family member who wants to keep you intrigued ........

what color will it be,nice prezzie

It had a Leeds address if that gives anyone a clue for me...but I think the giver is happy to remain anonymous.

I don't remember the colour was mentioned on the description....I'll try and remember to look on the label tomorrow and will post if the info is there, Ladybug.

Nice to have an unexpected gift :)

What a lovely surprise for you - it must have made your day.

I bet whoever sent you it is feeling so happy that they did.

It will be interesting to see what it's like when it's in flower.

Yes, a nice surprise indeed. I will post pictures when it is in flower. Thanks Hywel and Marie.

Lovely gift, the flowers are white slightly cream with age with a strong scent. They seem to prefer slightly acid conditions to thrive, mine struggled until i repotted it in ericaceous compost.

lovely plant Jacquie,lots of new growth & a lady can change her mind..lol.

Yes, Plantoholic....I read on the plant tag that it needed ericaceous soil and I have a bag of that so will be sure to use that. Thanks for the description of the flowers etc.

lol@ Joanella....I am changing my mind a lot these days when it comes to the garden....probably good that it is taking time to get whipped into shape! lol

i am the same with the allotment,we decide what is going where..then while OH is at work i put things in other places.. but i think thats because i have forgotten what we decided on in the first place ..lol

I've seen this plant advertised and offered a few times J, but I just find it really hard to believe it's hardy!....I'm an old cynic!! lol....let me know how you get on with it, it looks lovely! :)

Well Karen....you do live in Scotland!! lol There is hardy and there is hardy (except in Scotland)...hehe

If I forget to tell you about its hardiness, give me a reminder or a long distance kick in the shins, Karen....:)

We all do it, Joanella...change our minds!

Oi! ;))

its a healthy looking plant jacquie, what a mistery but a lovely gift :o)

you -- or someone you know didn't enter a competition did you?-- I had a necklace through the post once-- took me ages to remember sending off a card to win one!!--

No competition entries, Pam....I know it came via Leeds if my packaging was anything to go by...lol

Lovely surprise for you to win the competition and receive a necklace, Pam.

it was Whiston-- It was months before and sending my 'address on a postcard' completly slipped my mind
----- if it was christmas we'd call it 'secret santa' :o))

What a lovely surprise.....have you found out yet who it was?

No clue, Dottydaisy....still smiling at the generosity of a very nice person :)

I bet....
