    Beautiful nursery and a great variety of plants. Ferns and hostas definitely do great in shade. Great choice, love the sterling silver.

      Hi Tracy and thank you 🚙🤣 it’s a lovely nursery and I like that the plants are already acclimatised to being outside so shouldn’t get such a shock being planted. Happy Easter 🐣

    Plant shopping is the best way to spend your Easter holidays!
    I just love the little forget-me-not flowers of the Brunnera, they are so delicate and the spring colours of the Pieres will light up a shaded area. Good plant haul!

    Just what l needed, a trip to the Nursery with you. So many plants and choices. Gosh you could spend a day there. I'm thinking of changing the Hosta patch around my water feature. It's bare for far to long before the Hosta appear and it's my view out of the kitchen window. So thinking of digging them up and placing them in bare patches in that shady water garden. I was attracted by your Brunnera (not sure of spelling) l want something very leafy, all year round. Thank you Janette, l'm off to the Nursery.

      Hello there Nushie and thanks for watching. I haven’t had my Little Heath a whole year yet so I haven’t seen what it does each Spring, but I believe it’s the newest leaves which have the colour (in Spring) and then they turn a darker green as the year goes on. We will have to monitor them together and see what happens. If I were you I wanted cut anything off just yet and hopefully we will both have colourful new growth in Spring 🤞💕
