One of the reasons we are moving is to get a bigger garden. Paul has filled this one up and wants a bit more space to try out some new ideas.
 |
| This garden is full! |
However...... he cannot leave his favourites behind so for the last two years he has been gradually transplanting chosen specimens into pots. One hundred and eighty pots to be precise!
Here are a few of them..
 |
| Jasmine and Olive and pelargoniums in the plant house. |
 |
| Golden bamboo and magnolia |
 |
| Bamboo grown from seed |
 |
| Another grown from seed |
Some significant trees and shrubs...
 |
| Camelia |
 |
| Japanese maple |
 |
| Japanese maple |
 |
| Montezuma's Pine |
 |
| Rhododendron |
and some smaller specimens...
 |
| Various seedlings and one of the cactus collection |
 |
| Carnivorous collection |
Not forgetting his tomatoes - grown from seed and beginning to show signs of ripening already!
 |
| Tomato Rosada |
I have one to add to the removal van when the time comes...
 |
| Chines Elm Bonsai |
So I suppose we will have to tell the removal men one hundred and eighty one pots, unless we buy anything new over the next few weeks.
Wow! That's a lot of plants! How many can you fit in the van?
ReplyDeleteOMG I am green with envy of the plants but not with the thought of moving them all, let alone watering them. Where would I get bamboo seed from? I would love to grow it in pots like that.
ReplyDeleteYou gave us a black bamboo but I got its position wrong. If it had gone in a pot it might have done a little better.
