| As the end of September approaches, we still have some colour in the garden and the bees are very busy.

| Very nice. I don't have any garden as such, just a small patch of shared grass. |

| All good flowers Alan. They look in good condition. Do you give them any care other than just watering? |

| To answer both your questions. Yes Malcolm it is indeed a hydrangea Mart - we have a water butt that catches roof rainwater, I have installed into it a small submersible 5 bar water pump which can be connected to the inlet of our garden hose. I then mix a packet of Miracle Grow plant feeder in the water and then switch on the pump and water the garden with it, (but avoiding foliage) every month through the flowering season.

| Beautiful Alan I love garden plants and flowers.....I have lots of Hydrangea all grown from cuttings, that's one of mine in the forum heading, if you were nearer I'd be cadging cuttings of that one from you. |
