Author Message   Scotkat  My Garden Journal Posted on Sunday, November 06, 2005 - 03:11 pm EST :    Very unusual for this time of year . Ground too wet with all the rain we have had this week to catch up on weeding before the end of the year arrives with bad weather.

Now that it's cooling down some they are happy as can be. Until the first frost that is. DuckWatcher, NCa z9b   Shirley1md  Posted on Monday, November 07, 2005 - 08:49 pm EST :    Beautiful Fuchsia! Our warm spell is still hanging on too! It certainly has fooled a lot of plants!!

At first glance seeing your Silvia Barker did think it was Lyes Unique very similar don't you think. How many fuchsias are in your baskets Kath? Scotkat - Scotland, Zone "?"   Fbonsailady  My Favorite Photo My Garden Journal My Weather My Garden My Time Posted on Tuesday, November 08, 2005 - 04:30 pm EST :    Yes indeed, the colours of Lyes Unique and Sylvia Barker are very similar. Here's Brookewood Belle in the garden today and Lady Boothday just keeps on climbing Kath Zone 8b UK   Scotkat  My Garden Journal Posted on Tuesday, November 08, 2005 - 05:28 pm EST :    How wonderful Kath as I said such a pleasure for us.But suddenly the cold spell will soon be here and no just our garden will start to shiver but us don't like the cold weather. Shall e-mail you soon Kath Scotkat - Scotland, Zone "?"   Fbonsailady  My Favorite Photo My Garden Journal My Weather My Garden My Time Posted on Wednesday, November 09, 2005 - 02:55 am EST :    Forgot to say Kath, there are 3 fuchsia plants in each of those 12 inch hanging pots, which are now 5 years old Kath Zone 8b UK   Scotkat  My Garden Journal Posted on Wednesday, November 09, 2005 - 08:25 am EST :    Kath what size is your hanging pot your beautiful fuchsias are growing in. Started off vey cold this morning 2degC even needed on my hat and gloves and now it has turned out a lovely afternoon and blue sky but still cold. Sunshine makes everyone smile and feel happy and you can always wrap up warm for the cold weather. Scotkat - Scotland, Zone "?"   Fbonsailady  My Favorite Photo My Garden Journal My Weather My Garden My Time Posted on Wednesday, November 09, 2005 - 08:38 am EST :    As I said above Kath, each pot is 12 inches across at the top . It's alright today in the greenhouse behind the glass with the sun out, but wind outside is rather chilly Kath Zone 8b UK   Scotkat  My Garden Journal Posted on Wednesday, November 09, 2005 - 04:07 pm EST :    Sorry Kath misread saw the 3 fuchsia pots xhanging pot missed the 12"pot. Yes a very cold wind and normally you would be a milder spell than us .not snow yet but did feel cold enough for it this morning. Scotkat - Scotland, Zone "?"
