Canny lass Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 They look absolutely fabulous (Don Lynn's pasties) and the hanging baskets aren't bad either! Hats off to whoever planted them. wish I could get mine to look that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Hogg Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 This is one of the people who did plant them Canny Lass, Don't have a clue who the strange bloke is, Malcolm may have an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie/915 Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 Adam there are some fine flower displays at a house more or less opposite Malcolm.The cemetery entrance looks very colourful.Top marks to all concerned . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symptoms Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 But what about that lush growth on Mal's mush ... obviously well fed with Babybio*. *for any non-gardeners out there Babybio is proprietary plant grub and not something that Operation Yewtree would be interested in.

Canny lass Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Beautiful! Am I right in thinking you are using border lobelia instead of hanging lobelia in those baskets? It's very effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Robinson Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Canny lass, now if you ask on the facebook page you might get the answer! BTW, We got Highly Commended last night. Sorry I can't post the pictures up here until I get rid of this dammed virus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Robinson Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Also BTW where other towns get professional horticulturists in to do their hanging baskets and tubs we did the whole lot ourselves! Well with a lot of help from friends and press ganged 'volunteers'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Patterson Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Well done, great to see all that effort recognised! So sad to see there are a few brainless louts who just don't get it! I expect it is the same ones destroying the picnic tables, once identified they should be named and shamed (if that is possible!) http://www.newspostleader.co.uk/news/blooming-marvellous-1-6743340?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canny lass Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 What a fantastic job you've done!! Nice to see so very many youngsters involved. That's the way to tackle destructive behaviour - encourage participation and create pride in their Town. They'll be much less likely to destroy something they've created themselves, or allow anyybody else to do so. They'll be so proud in years to come when they pass those trees, maybe even pointing them out to their own Children, and know that they had a hand in it. Well done everybody.

Brett Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Popped into tesco earlier for the missus to tell me that a lady (if that term is even appropriate) I'm a bright neon pink dress had walked across the road to the social club and presented some flowers from one of the boxes to her friend. I'm sure her friend appreciated the sentiment but failed to realise how much of a Richard her mate was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
