BLOKES THREAD-aimed at blokes-shielas welcome.

Seems to be a lack of threads for blokes.
On other threads,some ladies have mentioned, their OHs
would post, but had no interest in most of the threads on offer.
I can bump this thead twice a day,so its easy to find.
Give it a go---Richo.

I have Heliconia - moved now nearer the fence & in a very large pot.

 

Never flowered.

 

I live in hope - but they will take time to ' come back ' having been moved in Autumn.

 

Just loved them in Bali.

Yes - all get a good feed - probably do better than I.

 

Not enough water - I had thought - will see next summer - if I make it to then. lol

 

Had some left over Freddie Slice for lunch - very nice.

 

Richo - that's a good heart. Heart

It is very ' little black number ' chic.

 

As long as it does the job - along with staying off it - & - using the crutches - all good.

 

Hope you were dropped off again today and not bus-ing it.

No. not bussing these days.

 

More harping Dom - Is the soil water repellent?

 

Daughter doesn't believe there's such a thing. Sometimes the water just runs off and

you need this stuff.

Know what you mean - you can tell - it stays dry but the water runs through.

 

No - it was in this part of the garden - no matter how much you watered - move an inch - dry as - full sun.

 

The reason I moved everything & did this.

Good afternoon all - been chatty today.

 

Yes, Dom could go into landscape gardening if she wanted a profession.  Not do it, just plan.  Love that lily.  Not keen on bromeliads.  I did bring some plants with me - chinese ground orchids that I dug up from Frank's mum's garden and have been in a pot ever since - I will put them in the garden at long last.  A pot of miniature daffodils and some red and pink coral bells for a border.  They are the red flowers at the back in this photo of our Traralgon house.

Thanks stawka re the gas.  No natural gas up here - all bottled gas.  The gas companies come around every 2 months and top the bottles up.

 

Final decisions have been made re our colours and fittings.  Just hope I'm happy when it is all finished.
