@BigC that's a great idea about the sand. Could you do a pic of the breeze blocks or concrete stepping stones? please. All i can think of is the breeze blocks that are used when building a house.:)
One and the same @Logan...just step them (cascade like a stairway)

You mean you finished the project or someone ordered the deal 3am?? LOL! As long as you can have some power-naps and enough rests, you should be fine. I hope your war department goes easy on you..

@BigC You're incorrigible. Be careful, just in case your retinas fell. Always look after yourself and do some shut eyes.

alp, I just love that dark purple, shiny center! :love:

(Reminds me of blackberry jam! :ROFLMAO:.)

Ah! That's nice. And today, I have a blue single hibiscus. Should have tried my cross-pollination.

I have some new Dahlias open, but not the ones like those of @zenji 's - with split petal ends. I looked at my order file and there are at least 3 or 4 sulkers! According to my file, I should have one like zenji's - so jealous .. Have weeding and harvesting my potatoes today. Had quite a few runner beans and black beans for dinner. The tomatoes were so sweet .. cook them with my spaghetti.. Lovely flavour ..

Just went to pick up a wormery, a big pot probably 45 L, 3 trough and a 10L pot. It was very nice. The man was so nice. He said he new house costs me £300k and that he could never pay it off. Sad! Property prices are so high in this country that they are unreal.
