A Gardening Tip


Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?

In the drought you mean?
I paint them green,
fot that year round verdant show

Nice hat Susan.
Is it a sedum in the second pic?

Susan said...

Beaver: The hat is great - a gift from my mother. It can be scrunched up any old how and generally abused and still looks nice.

I don't think the little succulent is a sedum - it's not vigorous enough. A tiny precious piece was a gift from our neighbour Sylvie. It came from her mother's garden originally.

May be some type of saxifraga ?

Susan and Simon, I hadn't checked in in a while, and hadn't seen the post about the finishing of the GORGEOUS staircase... what a beautiful work of artisan craftsmanship. It looks lovely in the spot, too. How rewarding it must be to have it done, too! Lovely :)
