Anthony Darby:
No pics. Too sad after the meeces bit through one of my Narcissus hedraeanthus flower stalks and chomped a bit out of the other's flower last night :'( Still, happy Groundhog Day to those across the pond. Did the beasty see his shadow today?
Maggi Young:
Anthony, on the TV news there was film of the local "worthies" dressed up like eejits, dragging the poor critter out of his den, holding him up like a parcel and showing him off to the assembled crowds... mostly journos, I think, and plonking the benighted beast on a barrel top to see if said shadow was being cast... cries of, "can't see for all the flashbulbs "....
So, your guess is as good as mine!
It was Australia day recently,I don't suppose they hauled Rolf Harris out of a hole and held him up to the light?
No? I thought not.
Maggi Young:
Post by Anne Wright, moved from January page! Anthony Darby was being cheeky!...

Yellow seedling from Ashwood seed.
Anemone bordeaux
Anthony Darby:
The groundhog didn't impress Bill Murray much either ;D Cheeky? Moi? Wash your mouth out lassie!
snowdropman:
Anne - that Anemone Bordeaux really has a lovely rich red colour - thank you for showing it.
