Amazing as we just wing it re pruning

Yes, each and every one 😊

Hi Greg, apparently noone else thinks so. Not one viewer in over two years 🤔 Hope you are doing well. Ff

@@flowerfairy1950 I’m doing pretty well. I’m still here in Cedar Falls doing what I do! I hope you are doing well.

Hi Tom, we've had a few issues here too (still ongoing) but we are alive and kicking. You and Tanya are certainly survivors. Best wishes to you both. FF

Ah FF There's nothing else for it. Yes our struggles are mounting but there are so many poor folk who are so much worse off than we are. We had to get Tanya's gallbladder and my carcinoma removed privately. Same with my hip replacement a while back. NHS waiting times are beyond ridiculous.

Hello it sounds as if the rose wasn't in good shape or growing mix too rich. I am not an expert but better to wait until rose shows signs of new growth before feeding. Fingers crossed your rose has shown signs of life; they are very tough. I often wait and see and often plants recover. Good luck.

@@flowerfairy1950 NAh its dead. They all turned black. What are your temps when you take cuttings. Mine is 27-35 C. i think wrong temps are the problem.

@@sinn737😢 I have never had luck taking cuttings of roses. I have some which sadly are turning black.😢

Lovely to have you pop in and I am glad to read you are getting out and about. I am impatient for Spring, though the Narcissus are blooming. As usual the Pollinator Patch has been over planted so goodness knows how it will turn out. I fear the grapevines are dead (caused by the Wallabies ravaging them) if correct, it is going to be an horrendous job to get rid of them and the infrastructure that goes with them. The Wallabies have devastated gardenias too 😭 It is now more than two years since we have had a viewer for the house; difficult to stay positive. Just have to keep going. Potted up a couple of pots with Tiger Lillies. Stay positive Julie and I look forward to your B Hall video. Best Wishes 🧡🌻🐞🦋 FF

Me too!

He's very old. Poor old chap. I wonder just how old as they can live anywhere from 40 to 80.

wow that is amazing FF. Almost as old as humans then.

All wood from the 9 June 2021 storm. We've already burnt over 2-months' worth. 🔥

So glad you are sounding a little more positive Julie (despite the slugs and snails). We are finding it more difficult to stay positive and are living our days through (metaphorically) gritted teeth. As far as the environment is concerned Australia has a very poor record; particularly in regional areas. Enjoy your summer 🌻🐞🐝 FF 🧡

In general Australia is known for its poor environmental record particularly in regional areas where small acreages are often used as dumping grounds with all manner of things 'stored'.

For me it certainly was. Domestic Goddess I am not lol!

Thank you 👍and Welcome 😊

Definitely orange (no Peach). Do you know Jude the Obscure? My favourite with a beautiful perfume. Must check out 'Bring me Sunshine' ☀️

@@flowerfairy1950 I just looked up Jude the Obscure and it's lovely - another one for the list! I'll pop a video on my channel with Bring me Sunshine on when it does flower. I've just subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your garden!

@PlasBachGarden Snap! 🙂

@@flowerfairy1950 💗

@@flowerfairy1950 Thank you!

He (76) would like "one more bike" but needs to sell the Alfa Romeo Spider which he has listed but so far no interest (just like the house). No-one is spending.

Hi Julie I am happy that you are sounding more positive. Remember the garden will never be perfect but it and the birds will give you a lot of pleasure and weeding will keep you out of mischief lol! Give yourself time to think before you make any drastic moves. In the meantime, we are finding it very difficult and losing hope that elusive buyer will ever turn up. I will try and take a leaf out of my own book and try to stay positive. Best wishes FF 🧡🌻🐝🐞🍁🍂

Haha Thete's usually a morning delegation waiting under the Wisteria Arbour lol!

Are these all females FF? If so where are the males?

@@TomMcClean Haven't a clue on either question Tom

I'm sure you could Tom; the Scouts looked quite well balanced.

The Scout is indeed well balanced but am I?

Thank you and welcome 🧡

They were off doing other things lol!

Hi Julie After recent post-Council election I don't blame you for not wantiing to drive into Leeds. IF we ever get out of here (On 14 April 2-year anniversary of our listing I sent text message to Agent to the effect I was surprised the Guinness Book of Records had not been in touch; afterall three tyre kickers in 2 years must be a record!) I have to keep in mind my lack of driving experience and reluctance to actually get into the car to drive. If you end up selling and moving that will be another emotional wrench for you. Meanwhile you will have to join the nomowsummer brigade lol! I recently planted out a Salvia Amistad and a 'Mexican Hat' in what I assumed was the safest spot (George's Bed); both were grown from a cutting and a seed, both didn't survive 'til morning 😥 We soldier on and try to stay positive as you must do too. Take care 🐞🐝🌼🌻💐 FF

Hi again Julie, I was thinking about you saying you may consider moving. Please don't do anything knee-jerk. My friend Eileen (RIP) who lived in the US (ex Ireland) decided to relocate to independent community living not long after her husband passed away and very quickly regretted it. I'm not saying don't do it (do what suits you) but think carefully. Apologies for sticking my nose in. 😊🌻🧡

@flowerfairy1950 DO give advice as I am hopeless at knowing what I want. The thought of moving anywhere make me ill and when I mentioned to one of the family that there is a new retirement home opening in the village about 5 miles away. .I was told "It wouldn't do for you! It is a residential one nice bedroom,sitting room and bathroom. You can't cook or anything like you live now and you have to go to the dinning room for all your meals!! I know I would not settle there but not much choice at my age and my balance is getting worse as I dare not go outside without a walking cane and getting in and out of thevcar with one is not good. I .miss hubby more than I can explain. He always thought I would go first after my back op.4 years age... Just wish I had. Make the most while you have each other. Old and lonely is not nice. I do hope the future soon gets you a buyer for your lovely house and garden but take my advice, get a smaller garden and I am sure yo will do wonders with it as I know you can. Have a great week...I hope to finish my last video of the place we visited in Oct 2022 soon and hope soon I can get on UA-cam more...as I hate using this smart phone to watch the few I manage to have time for. Warmest greetings,Julie 🌝🐦👍

@@chaldon2viewJ84M Oh Julie I don't know your age etc but I shudder at a Retirement Village. Apart from anything else (cost to buy in etc) I think they would make you feel old faster than you need to and goodness knows what food would be served. Also if you feel ill at the thought of moving....don't! Stay independent as long as you can. My friend Eileen made a terrible mistake. She did investigate getting out but the exit fees were prohibitive. She also contemplated moving State to be closer to her daughter but then they moved and if she had relocated she would gave been stuck without her friends she would have left behind.. She also thought of returning to Ireland but that didn't work out. It is such a terrible predicament to be faced with but don't be bullied into a decision. Are there any home care help packages available? I have to say the future is a bit terrifying. There are just the two of us with no back up or support here but that was our decision so we will just have to deal with whatever comes. Julie please try and stay positive and I am sure you will work it out and do what's best. 💖💕😍

I read the other day two had been spotted in the UK (not sure where) I assume escapees.

Unlile kangaroos who graze, wallabies eat a lot of my plants 😥
