Welcome @Sol you've come to the right place.

Good morning all and to a sleepy @CrazyConure and @Sol

We would like to see photos of your garden .. Hope you enjoy your gardening journey here! Thank you for your kind words.

Going to tidy up the garden and I wonder if I should plant my agapanthus in the ground. It's called Polar Ice and it has just had buds. The first and only one. In yesterday's programme on Chatsworth, I saw agapanthus and clivia, they looked stunning. In the market, a seller asked for £8 for an agapanthus.. I couldn't believe my eyes. Any advice, folks?

 

[alp]

A big and warm heart-felt welcome to @Sol !

 

[Logan]

@alp Yes plant your agapanthus in the ground. it will take time for it to flower well.

 

[alp]

@Logan Do you think it will be able to withstand cold winter, on the assumption that I can't sell the house?

 

[Logan]

@alp yes it will, Monty lives in Evesham, so it should be ok with you down there.

Morning all, especially to @Sol a very warm and friendly welcome to you. Have fun in your new garden



Have a Serene Sunday everyone

 

[alp]

How are you today, @Upsy Daisy ?

 

[Upsy Daisy]

Don't blame you for falling asleep through GW this week @alp, I thought it was a really boring programme. I think there was a programme on at some point last week on the Chatsworth Show, so why 40 mins of GW had be dedicated to it beats me!

 

[alp]

Yes, I agree. I thought there would be separate programme on Chatsworth, so I keyed in Chatsworth and out came GW programme. Watched Beechgrove as well. Shame that bit about agapanthus doesn't show the tricks of bring them on..

@Logan I have now planted all four in the hot and sunny areas. In fact, all my garden is hot and sunny. Need to water it before sun comes out. Oh, no, it's already out!

 

[Upsy Daisy]

Washed out and feeling very tired, don really know why. I think it may just be an accumulation of being busy in the garden , with my Dad , a few health problems and not forgetting ( not that I ever will!) the stress and worry of last Sunday morning. What a week!!

People live daily with far worse worries, and I mustn't forget that

Enough of my woes, how are you on this lovely sunny Sunday?
