I love the gorgeous soppy dog and the way she looks at you. She clearly
adores you. It's nice to see a picture of you, too. What a lovely lady.
Alas, people always get most upset when viewing pictures of spiders. Does
that get me off your rogues gallery? :~)

I do admire your datura. I'd love to grow one, but I have a daffy cat who
thinks she's a caterpillar ... chomp .. chomp :~(
I recognised the Campsis, but couldn't come up with the species name. Most
frustrating. It's a beautiful vine. My sort of colour, too. Thanks for
sharing your pics.

It's one of those lovely plants one sees all over warmer climates - and
here, I may say in the right location - but I bet your sandy soil and
sharp drainage makes a really huge difference to its survival. * It's
lovely to see you and La Lotta looking all relaxed and laid back!

she was in competition with Edward :-)

Very interesting. In these warm winters, C. x taglibuana (which is
what I meant - grandiflora is the other parent) is happy with me.
I originally wanted C. radicans because the colour is better (as I
understand it), but was put off by the tenderness remarks.

On that matter, my Erythrina crista-galli is growing happily, but
have haven't yet got any decent flowers. Last year, it produced
some just before the weather turned cold and they more rotted than
opened.

Is your Erythrina outside, Nick? Ours lives in one of the greenhouses
because its pot is too big to move. It flowered very well this year,
as did the Petrea volubilis but it does have the advantage of glass.

I've had dogs all my life because I've been lucky enough to be able to
do that. I tried to do without for about 4 months before caving in.
;-) Oscar and Ray are in frequent snoring competitions and both look
equally indignant when I nudge them!

*SHE* ) I am convinced she is part fish)

I don't actually put any water into the box.

In the bottom of the box I have two large pieces of polystyrene which
support the basket and allows the water to drain into the bottom

Thanks for
sharing.

My pleasure

the climber is Campsis, if it has aerial root Campsis radicans but it
looks more like one of the hybrids like madam Galen

Nick, I would regard radicans as being the tough one and grandiflora as
being more tender, the crosses are generally hardy allthough don't always
flower well if some stems do not over winter and for that they need
summer heat. You should be pleased you did not plant C radicans as it is
an invasive nuisence and suckers like mad, but it does also self cling
