In 2014 we went to a Boat Jumble and, though we had nowhere to put it, I bought a beautifully decorated boat sink. It has been in the garden ever since! A couple of days ago, I planted the seed bombs I bought in Amsterdam, in a large pot but then realised that I needed that pot for a teepee of Sweet Peas so I have moved the bombs, which are just beginning to split, into the sink.
Our Crinidendron Hookerianum (Chilean Lantern Tree.) is spectacular this year.
I love the purple iris against the red of the lanterns on said Chilean Lantern Tree.

It was certainly a good find and now I have, at last, found a good use for it. 🙂
