Hayley

How absolutely magical Hayley

To be honest, it’s a bit gruesome Anne, they are always ravenous!

Morning lovely H, I could do with your slug munchers! Hope all is good with you and the family petal.

Splendid Hayley and good news on the mollusc munchers as they adore these young plants

Well done Jemima, keep at it girl

Love the ducks, Hayley and they love slugs and snails

I mentioned the idea of having them in GG and got some looks that said “Thought you’d prefer upright flowers for slugs!”

Quite a beauty, Hayley

Plant me, plant me, again and again…. Lovely! What’s the one on the far right?

The one on the right is digiplexis – I know because I have had my eye on it for a few weeks. It’s a cross between digitalis and Isoplexis from the Canary Islands. The virtue of the cross is that it produces flowering spikes from late Spring until first frosts. The flowers are sterile, but the plant is perennial and is increased by division.

Hello Hayley, well done to your friend your flowers look lovely. Good to have you back

… Unusual too

Bravo Sheila … and bravo to your Silver Gilt friend too Hayley

Thanks, Sheila!

Most unusual.

She was a beauty, just left her to do her stuff. Plenty to be getting on with in my bathroom clearly!

send her to me when she wants a holiday then Hayley and I’ll set her to work on the windows

It’s botanical name is ‘Digitalis Foxlight Ruby Glow’ Jane. They say it’s a half hardy perennial and it has ‘unique, two-tone coloured florets produced on dense flower spikes that continually develop throughout the summer’. Good for bees too!

I think I saw that one one at the show Sheila, the ‘Illumination’ series? This one was a little smaller. I just hope the rabbits don’t like it!!

Thank you Lynn, it’s never that I don’t want to talk, it’s more that ‘things’ get in the way, for example, ‘could you just’ and ‘have you got a minute’ I think I need to affirm the negative a bit more!

Will do Anne, not far for her to go as well!!

Yes i have them just like that Hayl. i’ll save some seed of the other colours for you for next year,

I absolutely LOVE them Al, the singles especially. How are you my friend? I saw you’ll be off on the boat soon

Yes seeing how i’ll manage Hayl, Last week creased me, My son drove over a thousand miles,Went up as far as Liverpool and just about every seaside town on the way up.

How lovely Al, what a great lad he is

Stayed in a coaching house in Betws y Coed ,I must have put a stone on in the week away.

Hello Hayley and Al What a pain about your spinach! Not all wildlife is equal
