Hi everyone! Just posting a couple of pics of the new plants I bought at Hampton Court on Tuesday (following request by Dan).

Just got a shock on BBC2 tonight coming from Hampton Court.  There was my relatives doing a bit with Charlie Dimmock.  I was too excited to notice what they were up to but it seems the Young son ws interested in gardening and his father Logan Sangster was doing a lot of talking to camera.  and I didnt even tape it.  Anyone else see it tonight?

Gardengirl

Yes Carol, I saw it and thought how nice it was to see a young boy interested in gardening.  I hope all his hopes for his future in horticulture come to fruition.  It must have been a surprise for you :)
Happy gardening all...........Pat

Robert_Brenchley

Was he interested in gardening or being on the TV?

Carol

He was interested in Gardening Robert.  Any other comments to make????

Lord Steve your HRT is wonderful, particularly the clem. Funny how we both fell for the same one! Mine's got seedheads too now - and I'm delighted with it!

Hello Lord Steve.Lovely pics. Trouble is nearly every pic I see of a plant I think....I would like that!!!! My sons second business is dealing in imported cars and almost every one he brings home I say "I really like that one, is it fast?" When I win the lottery I will buy one of them(cars) and invite myself to see your lovely plants ;) ;DOh dear that reminds me of that advert  BRAZEN HUSSY!!!Regards Lorna.
