and a Gloire de Temple-sur-Lot is on it's way to us. :-)

Well it arrived today, 2nd August and was packaged and posted on the 27th
July. Took 5 days to get from Bordeaux to London! Luckily it still looks in
good shape so I potted it up and went to place it just near the edge of our
pond. Unfortunately I tripped and, carrying the heavy pot, went head first
into 1 metre of water and all our other lilies.
I bet you're all laughing!

Unfortunately I had my mobile phone in my pocket at the time, expensive
lily! :-(
