Oh, sorry Cheryl, it means "Nothing without work" or "without effort". I'll add it to the main post. My nephew's girlfriend made that cake for her...
We visited the Floriade last year. I promised to show photos, but I'm sorry to say I forgot all about it until now. If you want to see the...
When it rains I start to ponder all sorts of weird things. For instance... Why is there an Ornitogalum in my orchid bed? We haven't got any,...
Palustris, I think you have more of them than I do. I only filled a couple of bark chip bags. :D
Thank you Kiasmum. :D I would have loved to have you at the after-party, too bad you live so far away.
Thanks Calin. :) Netty, we're going to have rain and lower temps for a few days, starting tonight, but I always hope. 8) Thanks Mrs....
Cayuga I think you're right about it being a Kalmia. I guess the plant's in someone's garden, and if I can find one it'll soon be in my garden! :lol:
Thanks all. I'm so happy we've finally got proper spring weather. :lol: Sjoerd, this particular Meconopsis is very early. The rest of them are...
Thanks for liking our hellebores. :D We love them since they give so much colour to the garden at an otherwise bloom-less time. What I don't like...

They're lovely. :D Since they don't last for very long I guess you're a lot more aware of their beauty when they bloom.
:lol: Well caught, please increase security from now on.
Awww, they're such cuties. :D
That's a very pretty Iris, well worth the wait. :D Your border looks good, well done!
Great haul! :D I'd love to have a closer look at the Heuchera once they're settled in.
Nice finds. :D The fishy is my favourite. It's very decorative and fits nicely where you put it.
I'd love to know what it is so I hope someone will come along and tell us. The buds are very decorative and I'd love to see the clusters fully open.
Happy Anniversary! And many happy returns. :stew2:
Wait a minute, I have to wipe away some drool... There. Your Iris are gorgeous! I've never had any luck with the bearded Iris, but I might have to...
Your blooms are a sight for sore eyes. :stew2: Your borders are delightful. I'd love a Mimosa tree in my garden. They're so pretty.
