Thank you, for don't think the body will ever make the show. Anything that you show will be more than marvelous. Chelsea is only in my dreams.
God Bless you for taking the time to do this.

Dear Nancy, it is a lot of work! Bit i do know that some people appreciate seeing Chelsea from my eyes, so to speak. My eyes have gone square looking and sorting out photos. Then putting them all in and getting the first Article done, start the second and still more to do! Plus my mother wants me today and other jobs.
Just hope someone actually looks at my Article which will be out tonight!
Loads of Love.
Neil.

Neil, do slugs or snails eat Hosta??--- just wondering, because I had one a long time ago, & something ate all the leaves up really quickly... then it died, and it wasn't a cheap plant--- I didn't buy anymore... Whistling But I do like them, as there are sooo many leaf colors & patterns to choose from.

Connie, they would be the culprits eating the hosta. slimy things to. I have more beds of iris that what is above. Only cause I have to divide those babies every two years and just plunk them down wherever there is room. Hence I have no names for any of them............

They need it again this year. Maybe an iris bed is needed. where........... out front somewhere I think.

Dear Linda, why are you back from the pub so early on your Birthday?
I told Phoenix to guard the olive trees as the birds have been eating them. Then I caught her asleep, this is a serous military offence!
So I have docked ten biscuits from her pay, per day!
Sleeping on guard duty, huh!
Regards.
Neil.
