  1. Has anybody got one of them perennial sweet peas?

    If so can I have a bit, or some seeds? Pretty please.

    Not at all. I don't mind (for relative values of don't) paying for
    seed, especially when I want certain characteristics. In this instance
    I am hoping for a set of characterises that include variability and
    success over a period encompassing generations. I want a hand me down.

    I have three garden centres selling 7 different brands at 7 different
    prices all on my usual routes in and out of here and seeds fit on a bike
    a treat.

    I don't do gardens - apart from building bike sheds on them.
    Herself does that stuff. So I asked herself if we had any of them kind
    of plant things.
    She says "No, but I think next door do. I'll have look and see what I
    can pinch"
    Watch this space.......

    at next door)

    So, after many years of public service my father gets invited to a
    Garden Party at Buck house. A lot of rows followed but eventually my
    Mother gives in and agrees he can go and doesn't need to carry a bomb
    but their was no way she was going without her secateurs.


    Needless to say she came home with enough cuttings to start a garden
    centre.

    Well it turns out that they do actually have to replant most of the
    gardens after these letting in the general public garden party type
    things. Which says a great deal about Liz's Loyal Subjects I think.

    Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside
    this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get the two-level
    effect...

    Yes - how many do you want?

    They're reputed to be unriable in the germination department, so think
    of a number and double it. Then double it again and add the number you
    first thought of.

    Then, send me your snail innit.
