Sox is very taken with the new rusty crowns, perfect for framing gorgeous cats

Sox would like everybody to know he’s starving as he hasn’t had any dreamies for at least an hour

Had some cuddle time with Sox this morning, I think he missed me as I was away over the weekend #shopcat

Had a lady get annoyed with me today as I couldn’t sell her any bug spray, fungus spray or Roundup for ground elder. “What kind of garden centre doesn’t sell these things” “One that cares Madam” I do have eco friendly alternatives 😊

Personally I’m really happy about Sunak’s plan to introduce National Service for 18 year olds. It will really encourage young people to vote and decimate the Tories even more 😄

I’m loving the leaf colour on this unusual variety of Twisted or Corkscrew Hazel, Corylus avellana ‘Red Majestic’ In winter the corkscrew stems are the main feature, but I think this is much more exciting than the usual green leafed.

In addition to being a Genius, Legend and Icon, did you know Prince was a keen gardener? All the cool kids are right? #GardeningTwitter

A rep from the wildflower company I buy seeds from rang a few mins ago to see how they were selling… I said “I’ve got 12 packs left” He said “ Oh so you’re halfway there” I replied ……..

Some Lewisia arrived yesterday, I love these flowers with incredible bright petals! I know some find them a bit much but I think they’re fab 👍
