I’ve been extremely busy packing my bulbs.
I’ve got some of everything in bags now, and will be taking them to Ford in the morning ( Saturday).
Weather permitting, I’ll be at Shoreham Flyover on Sunday .
I still have a few varieties which I’m waiting to arrive. But I had a quick count-up and I have around 80 different varieties to choose from.

Unfortunately, I’m. Not going to get to Broadwater Green tomorrow.
It’s taking me longer than expected to get all of my bulbs packed.
I had is problem getting to the Nursey on Thursday and Friday , due to traffic , so I’m a bit behind schedule.
Weather forecast is mixed this week, but if it’s dry, I’m planning on going to Ford on Thursday and Saturday and to Shoreham Flyover on Sunday with my bulbs and a selection of Plants

I’m not at Ford this morning, I’m sorting out my bulbs. 🌷🪻🌼
Yesterday, my pallet of bulbs arrrived.
Most things are there, but I still have a few things which I’m waiting for.
The quality of the bulbs looks as good as they usually are. It takes me a while to print all the labels off and to count and pack the bulbs , but I’m hoping to have them ready for selling at the weekend.
Weather permitting (Although it’s not looking very promising at the moment🌧️)
I will be at Shoreham Flyover on Sunday and Broadwater Green on Monday.
My son is off travelling again, so won’t be out selling, as I have a. Gatwick airport ✈️run to do on Saturday .
The flyover was very busy again last Sunday. It was sold out again , and extremely busy with buyers. When it’s so busy, it’s impossible to get any sort of signal there , so I can’t post anything while I’m there.

Today we have family visiting from Oz 🇦🇺,
so I’m not at Ford this morning,
but will be at Shoreham Flyover tomorrow.
After another extremely hot week, well over 40C in the greenhouses, it’s made it very challenging to get much done at the nursery.
Our massive wall of bamboo is really suffering from the lack of water.
I have been there in the evenings, when it’s a cooler, although yesterday, I was there at 6 pm and it was still 30C outside! And still around 23 when I went home around 9. I’ve been repotting plants which have friends and need more Space and have done lots of watering 💦💦💦 every day. All the Plants are looking good, but Flowers don’t last as long and go over much faster in the extreme heat , but I’ve managed to keep enough plants looking nice and with flowers for the flyover on Sunday . 🌺🌸🪴🌼

I’m fighting the light going now! Noticeably getting dark a lot earlier , can’t really see now after 8.30.
I’ll be at Shoreham Flyover tomorrow, next to the burger 🍔 van. It’s usually difficult to get a signal there, as it’s so busy , but il post some pictures if I get a chance
