Sue-those ferns are beautiful! Love the varying colors!
ReplyDeleteI really like ferns, Sue and we have them dotted in other parts of the garden too.
DeleteFern garden is looking good x
ReplyDeleteI would have expected those ferns to have died right back by now, Jo.
DeleteIs that a cordyline with berries? I've never seen that before. I had a beautiful cordyline which I'd grown from a tiny plant but I lost it a few years ago, I've been meaning to replace it ever since but still haven't got round to it. I'm so sorry to hear about Tivvy, why on earth did she need her tail amputating? Poor little thing, I do hope she makes a quick recovery, you must have all been so worried about her.
ReplyDeleteThe one with berriea is black mondo grass Ophiopogon planiscapus 'Nigrescens', Jo. Often referred to as black grass but it is related to lilies and not a grass at all.
DeleteTivvy had a tumour on her tail that was going to need attention but it burst meaning the op ended up as an emergency. We spent some very anxious hours as having lost so much blood the surgery was risky. The vet said it was unlikely that tumours would appear elsewhere as they removed it all. She now has a little stumpy tail and has her stitches removed tomorrow. To all outside appearances she is back to her self but I think the stitches are irritating her. Just hoping tomorrow goes OK now.
Che belle immagini!! Si respira già un aria primaverile :)
ReplyDeleteUn saluto :)
Che hai per la visita. Sono contento che ti è piaciuto le fotografie ma non è molto come primavera oggi :-)
DeleteAh... I see... snap ;-) I'm loving your ferns too. I used to have many but as other plants caught my eye and being short on space my collection dwindled. I'll pretend I've still got them all looking at yours :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you can enjoy them ferns vicariously, Shirley
DeleteMy ferns have had it! Good to see you have plenty of greenery!xxx
ReplyDeleteOurs should have disappeared by now, Dina,
DeleteThe second leaves are really awesome.
ReplyDeleteThat's a passion flower, Endah.
DeleteI was going to ask about that first photo too - both the leaves and teh berries are so pretty and unusual.
ReplyDeleteIt just makes low growing ground cover, Margaret and has some small flowers in summer.
DeleteThe berries are edible? That's huge ferns! We have many of them here!
ReplyDeleteI don;t think they are edible, Malar. I won't be trying them to find out!
DeleteVery mild winter is in your place Sue, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteWe have had some frost over the last few days, Nadezda but the temperatures are still above what we usually expect,
