Garden Project

For 2012 a new garden is in order.

Must haves;

1. Decking
2. Greenhouse
3. BBQ
4. Lots of pots and baskets

To achieve this I need to dismantel the pond and remove the remaining grass (not a lot), the hard bit is removing the pond. I'll take some pictures and post them here, also I'll try and put a plan of the garden on here.

Idea 1.


Some New Plants

From Roualeyn Nursery

Bella Rosella


Heri Mochara

Orange King

Visit to Roualeyn Nursery Conwy

A day out on Conwy meant we could visit what I understood to be a great fuchsia nursery and we was not disappointed. Located just outsode Conwy in a small village called Trefriw. It is situated at the top of a very steep hill that we didn't think our car would make it up but I'm g;ad to say we amde it.

There was a large selection of very fine Fuchsia's, some brilliant standards and massive baskets.  I bought a few new plants and I think I'll be visiting tha Harrogate show for a Standard.

I'll post some images of the new plants........

Excellent nursery, if your near by pay it a visit and if you use mail oder you can be confident you will get great plants.

Hostas

Not had as much time as I would like so far this year, Fuchsia are a bit behind, no where near as amany as last year and also I have only just got my Hostas into tubs - had them for ages in a box from Parkers.

Hosta are another favourite plant, I have about 7 so far just to see how well they will do.
They will need wintering as do the fuchsia plants.
I'll get some more pictures up soon, but here is one that will be put in a basket this week.
