Another exhausting day, lorry number three out of 11 now loaded with the next lot of tree ferns for Andy Sturgeon.
Good moment this afternoon when the Daily Telegraph team phoned to say that they were totally delighted with the Gunneras which had arrived in one piece, with no torn leaves!
Loading the tree ferns today was quite sad in a way. You become quite attached to them, especially when they are more than 100 years old...you want them to be looked after, bit like a treasured antique.
Getting ready now for Monday's deliveries which will be for the Flemings' Australian garden. They have bulrushes amongst other things. The experts said there's no way we would get them in flower for May...well we have!!!
Managed an hour today to prepare for the Desert to Jungle exhibit which is bottom of the list at the moment. I can't believe we're off to Chelsea on Wednesday and have had no time to select any plants for the show yet...it'll be ok!
