    It just goes to show how mild our UK weather is at the moment. Lovely photographs Eric and they certainly make me smile in anticipation of next spring. :-D

    Glendann, the 'white rock' is actually crushed ceramic waste from the Potteries. It makes a very good inert, sharp addition to potting compost for alpines.
