  7. First passion flower in bloom today , a one day wonder apparently though .
  8. Dave I think the photo may have given a false picture how big the sunflower was it was only about 12 foot tall so some way off the record lol It was staked but it was growing at the side of my shed so the top was exposed to the elements. But for a first attempt and in a container I thought the height it reached was good and fortunately the stump is still alive and some flowers should still bloom .
  9. Sorry to hear about your balcony growing problems this year . Gardening can be so frustrating but also rewarding , so I would put it down to one of those things and go again next year .
  10. Thanks Steve , I just had a go this year with more time on my hands , never grown one before so I was surprised at the height it achieved in a container , I will take your advice on board for next year. Hopng the remaining stump will flower as they are still some emerging flowers still to bloom so maybe all is not lost. Whatever it has been an enjoyable experience.
  11. Yes Russ one big one and two smaller one which came out yesterday , saved the 3 maybe the birds may get a meal or two . The plant has still got some emerging flowers so I have lopped the top off and hoping the plant survives. This is my first attempt to grow a sunflower and I was quite proud of it and yes I am a bit sad.
  12. Today the wind smashed it in half
  13. My Sunflower heading skyward .
  14. Its Jean, Scherrie and Lynda aka The Supremes with The Originals and it was produced by Levine.
  15. Seen this loads of times but stills brings a smile to my face. Great record and a lovely guy by the looks of it , who took the opportunity to perform in the shop with gusto .
  16. Having some success with the bird feeders attracting different species but did not expect this though . Monk Parakeet ?
  17. R.I.P. Bonnie . Always loved this
  18. Some nice ones here pricy though Steve. https://www.primrose.co.uk/stone-bird-baths-c-1_134_11357_11361.html
  19. I would imagine not Steve I think it is quite old made with sand , concrete and fine pebble mixture . I got it off a work colleague who said I could have it for nowt , but I gave him a tenner ! . Absolute bargain , and we took it home in the work wagon.
  20. Not a great photo quality wise . 2 young Starlings on my bird bath and a Blackbird feeding on the ground .
  21. R.I.P Betty , a truly great artist who's talent was recognised and rewarded .
  22. R.I.P Richard a true trailblazer. Love this
  23. Apparently not , so called because.one of the founding members was a big fan of The Dells so they added an R.as a tribute to the Dells . Rhyming with Bell makes more sense though. Story here . https://blog.ponderosastomp.com/2017/08/tighten-archie-bell/amp/
  24. Does it get any better than this ? The Four Tops
  25. Great to see Hedgehogs , seem the only ones I see are dead on the roads . Also a victim of people including myself putting up fences and ripping out the hedges deny them a free run through gardens . I have been in Wilko today and saw for the first time Hedgehog food amongst the wild bird food , what next frog feed !
