Title: after two years there is a re-newed interest
Post by: mark smyth on September 12, 2012, 08:08:48 PM

since December 2010 when the big the big freeze wiped out all plants in my green house I lost all interest and time stood still in there and dozens of pots remain where they were.

Last week a small switch flicked on in my brain

Actually, the idea is to put something in the pots…...

And the "switch" said......TAKE UP POTTING INSTEAD OF GARDENING.....the results are so much more reliable!!

Mark,

Maybe it is an idea to show us the development of your renewed interest by showing the same photo you've showed us, but with content, growth etc. of what will be in the pots eventually.

Your own log in this thread so to speak.

Off work now for three weeks and in that time the green house will be sorted, pots filled and the perennials cut back
