We must have similar problems with gardening at height and with intermittent wind. I still haven't cracked how to cope with the occasional blasts we get from the south when most of the time it is sheltered.<br />hah - came, saw, didnt have much of an idea sadly!<br />VB - hi and welcome. Large box of apples on its virtual way!<br />Gail - I still have plants to get in too and am hoping I will manage that in the next couple of weeks. Should be ok for frosts to end of October here.

Lovely gardens - I do love that rudbeckia - I have it too and it gives such a good show.<br /><br />Do you have any schyzostyllus? Mine is very invasive but is out all over the garden at present and is a wonderful bright red. I will post a photograph tomorrow so that you can see it. If you want a bit, I am happy to parcel it up and send it to you.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028290314714419963.post-23006635750202333312010-10-05T17:56:33.147+01:002010-10-05T17:56:33.147+01:00Great pictures - the colours just leap at you.Great pictures - the colours just leap at you.Fran Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07935088780461825341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028290314714419963.post-40859847386817808172010-10-05T15:33:31.577+01:002010-10-05T15:33:31.577+01:00That's it - all invitation to visit Pondside a...That's it - all invitation to visit Pondside are herein withdrawn - unless you visit with the garden is under snow.
