I misread flags for a second and I was getting really happy, but I will settle for some flags.

two baby dasys got through two winters now hopefully....much hardier then I thought when I planted them. Fingers crossed

[redsquirrel]

one of my little ones is showing some minor damage but it did last year too,dont think the pots they are in are helping.ceramic long tall skinny face pots

[metalhammer]

Darren,have you overflowed into land that doesn't belong to you?.


I'm impressed with the dasy,is that the one you got off Gary Whatton?


Saw a nice wheeleri today,one of Nigels early jobs,took a long time to root away,but now growing strongly in a none to mild area of Dorset.Has survived the last 2 winters outside with no protection at all.

Darren going by what I've seen price wise I would hazard a guess at £200 possibly £200+

yes mh,i have borrowed a good friends garden for a while,have to clear that oneday aswell,probably have around 40/50 plants round there too
wheeleri is a nice dasy too,i couldnt resist the other big one gary had although that is not as user friendly. i read that dasys were bone hardy before i bought them but werent to good at re-rooting but luckily,both of these were.
Bev,if ever you are up this way,give me a knock,be good to see you again and Nick,you are right 200+++ they arent cheap but add an instant impact.

Darren sadly £200+++to dear for my meager pockets I am afraid, but they are sure good looking tho, thanks for your answer at this late hour

[redsquirrel]

im not selling those nick,took me long enough to find one with roots on.the smaller one next to it was also 200+++ but still hasnt re-rooted, or hadnt last time i looked about a year ago.thats been sat there for 3 years. i had a job lot of plants from hardypalms when it closed down to sell on, that is mainly why we are looking like a nursery.the neighbours love it in the summer,pop round for a look and often have something for their garden

[Nick]

Darren you know I and Cathy wuld love to come around to yours for a look and natter

[redsquirrel]
