Pulsatilla Vulgaris
3rd time to write this journal, 3rd time lucky, will copy it this time though before I send it!!!!!!!!!
I had not heard of Pulsatillas until I bought my first one 3 years ago. I googled it at the time and it said it will either thrive in the spot you plant it or die! It likes a well drained soil and I can happily say mine must be happy! I also have the Rubra colour and will now have to have a white one!

Am I Sir Winston Churchill?
I put up a photo of what I thought was a Sir Winston Churchill daffodil but when I got up close and personal with my daffodils I actually think this is it instead. Apologies - I don't know what the other one is so!

Tulip
When I got home from work today, hubbie asked me to download the photos on the camera and this is the result, he has been taking photos of my flowers.
Any solution to this problem? Should I take his temperature??

Mount Congreve
Today Rachel and I went to Mount Congreve on the banks of the River Suir in Co. Waterford. We met Paddy & Mary (Gracedieu Lass) & Anne (Lady Gardener) there. We spent a fantastic 3 hours there, Paddy & Mary were able to guide the way as it one of their favourite haunts and only down the road (railway line) from their house! Very lucky them! Many of the Rhododendrons, Camelias, Magnolias were looking their best and many still had to bloom.
I would highly recommend a visit if you are anywhere down in the South East but do leave lots of time and bring a picnic! The entrance was also free which amazed me.
Thank you guys for the company, I will be back!
