Lovely piccies, La Puce.Thank for inviting us into your garden.
Glad you managed to kill the cats - it's the only way, I'm afraid.

Wow, your garden is fantastic! :-)

Do you have much trouble with slugs and snails on the alliums?

I'd love to try some, but am plagued with snails both here and at the
caravan... Not too bad for slugs at the mo in Liverpool as we did the
nematode thing, though think it may be time to do it again - must check
my diary!

Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful space with us.

Our lil' heaven - thank you. Just think if I had a bigger place - I'll
have 3 more dogs and 5 more cats ;o)

I have lots of them but they don't go for the alliums. They don't like
the smell you see. So grow them!! This year I have new ones which are
slower than the 'sensation' ones, I have the allium 'hair' and the
carinatum puchellum. At first I worried about the depth I had put them
in but it's possible they are slower. The buds are just about to open
now. I collect slugs/snails by torch light early on and I think by
doing this I get less and less small one, obviously :o)

It's trully a pleasure Maggie! And there's more to come !! I wish more
people would put their photos up. It gives ideas ;o)

Today, the beasts were seen lying all over the place in puddles of
sunshine - I swear they have doubles ...

Ta :o) I use a sony digital cyber shot 3.2 mega pixels. It's not the
best, but it's an old one. I've got mpegmovie VX on it and I went silly
the other night filming my garden lit with a huge torchlight as I moved
about. I forgot that there's sound on it too - so when I played it back
to everyone, you could hear me going "hoooo qu'il est beau le
lilaaaaaaaa, hoooo que ca sent bonnnnnn" <g>
