Sssshhh don't tell MaggieSssshhh don't tell MaggieMaggie will tell me off so don't anyone tell her that I am going to buy a Marguerite plant from Leedle on Thursday and it will be going in a pot outside.
I am starting to tidy up all my pots as some shrubs can now be moved into the garden so have to fill the empty pots with something pretty . Now remember not a word to Maggie Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieMy lips are sealed.
Just goggled it, it is pretty isn't it ? http://www.busheyk9.co.uk
If you can't be a good example........ you will just have to be a horrible warning Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieI tend to buy one every year Wendy, it keeps going all through spring and summer.
I like the coloured daisy like flowers too, can't remember the name osteo something or other
Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieNot a word from us either MrsB
I just goggled it too, what a pretty looking plant. Are things safe to go outside now do you think? All my seedlings are still on the window ledges. Bev x

Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieDidn't know what it was till I googled it but I now know the proper name for the plant that when I see one in the garden centre just call it the plant with the big daisy things on!
And my lips are sealed, not a word Tammy xxx

Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieWell the cats out of the bag now .
I call the other plants osteoporosis plants but think its really osteospurmum, when we first moved in we had a couple of plants that appeared to be perennial as they came up year after year and flowered just as well each time , then one year we waited for them to come through and zilch. They were a pretty violet blue colour , I find some of the colours a bit garish for my liking. It will be alright in the end , if its not alright, it isn't the end .

I like the white ones with a tinge of blue. Like you Annie I don't like the vividly coloured ones. Common name Windflower http://www.google.ie/search?q=osteosper ... 92&bih=541
Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieOh I love all the garish ones as Annie puts it
Reminds me of my wedding bouquet - I had bright pink gerberas Bev x

Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieI like the blue tinted osteo whatsists too with the blue centres, I used to tell Tamzin that the fairies had started to paint them but ran out of paint which is why they were not blue all the way.
It was Benny that snitched on me I just know it. Re: Sssshhh don't tell Maggie
Stop accusing people Mrs B it was OH
Re: Sssshhh don't tell MaggieI am going to start my sweet peas this weekend can't believe its the 2nd week in April and I haven't done it yet.
I was in the local Co-op today and one of the guys there was saying its madness, they had a delivery today of a tower of anti freeze and the next thing off the lorry was bedding plants, hardly items that go together. It will be alright in the end , if its not alright, it isn't the end .

Maybe it is the new way to protect tender plants from frosts. |
