I have just found my *language of flowers* book, given to me with so much love 6 years ago by an 11 year old I used to look after one evening a week... she is fully responsible for joining me up to GR, lolol... she set my 50th birthday prezzie up for me (a laptop) as I didn't have a clue... and this book was a part of my birthday present from her.

Thank you, everyone, so much... must go and get my gardening gear on!! xxxx

Hi Daff

Sooooooo sorry but things are a bit hectic here and what with my useless brain..... (now what was I going to say... oh yes)

I forgot my watering can again today but a friend is popping to the garden centre tomorrow to source a very special Beverley plant which will be transplanted directly. Hope this is OK.

Let me know when this arrives. Would also be interested in the colour :-)

Daff

Looks like the garden has loads of Tender Loving Care.

lolol..... no erm *hanging* around there, then, lolol!! ;¬)) I do wonder what Percy thrower would make of all these plant markers with things like... *Ninjalady Rosemary* *ButterCup FieldsPotato* and *Mrs Grumpy Sunflower* etc etc ,lolol

Take care
