I have a heap of dahlias some small to huge 1's. Some will reach 3-4 feet tall lol where others will reach 6 inch tops.
Also heaps of mixed lilys. A huge mixture of these in many many colours and hights. I threw them all in a bucket and mixed them up and just planted them as I picked them out the bucket.
Also I have planted my fav plant English Lavender. Dog keeps crushing 2 of them so I have to move them elsewhere. I hope to cut a few soon to take cuttings for next year.
I've alsorts of other bulbs planted but can't remember thier names. They did look good on the package though.
I've also got 2 very old chimney pots with slots for sticking plants in. Can't wait for them to flower. I'll get a photo soon when they flower.
I'm dreading all these flowering as it may effect my hayfever a lot.
I've not even started on the back garden yet. That can wait till next year. I want a few raised beds 1 for herbs and 1 for some rhubarb. I love eating it.

That does give me an idea for a blue barrel I have in the back garden. I could cut holes in it and have them planted up with the lavender. Had it 15 years and it's not seen a plant yet lol.
I just love lavender. Especially when put in draws and wardrobs with cloths in them. Also keeps the moths away.
Shopping time before the rain gets too bad. Byeeeeeeeeee.
I always get a little buzz waiting to see how what I've planted comes out like. Got some small dahlias and glads this year, amongst other stuff.
Going to have to dig out and replant my old lavender, I was lazy about the autumn trim and such a dire Winter has left it gnarly and split along the main stems. No longer a thing of beauty. The Rosemary bush sailed through it all with a smile though.
Popping out in a minute to the Garden Centre; the credit card will take a hammering, buying all my annuals. Oh, and replacing various solar light strings that ...

chomped their way through in the Spring.
