Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

Oooh love a good Bunnings stop! @Shaz51 

 

Will that be a treat for you as well, or will that be purely for Mr Shaz?

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

The one in the city is BIG @Ru-bee so yes I will have to think what I need 

 

Hubby has made a list already 😁

 

You like Bunnings ? 

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

I do, especially the plant section @Shaz51 Every now and then I like to dabble in small DIY projects too, with varying degrees of success.

Being in Bunnings seems to always makes me feel like I can be a handy man despite perhaps not having the actual skills to back this feeling up 😂

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

@Shaz51 fingers crossed it's the same like you expect and no surprises. 

Are you and mr shaz  fully recovered from the flu yet? It seems to hang on for ages. 

If it was me at Bunnings I'd get a coffee and look at the gardening section, whatever else I went for. My early Spring flowers are out - hellebores, polyanthus, narcissus, Lorraine Lee rose.

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

We had to replace 2 of our tibouchina plants which got too wet feet from all the rain we had 

@Ru-bee so we have brought 3 new ones , so fingers crossed 🤞 

 

Do you like shrubs or flowers?

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

Thank you @Dimity , I will be thinking of you lots too 💖 

 

Yes finally after 5 weeks of the flu 😊

 

All your plants sound nice @Dimity , I will have to look them up 

So you have lots of colours,  and are they all in pots xx 

@Ru-bee 

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

I have mainly been restricted to houseplants @Shaz51 as I rent and I'd previously just been in an apartments, but now I have a cute little courtyard with some garden beds so I'm looking forward to planting some flowers when spring time rolls around!

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

Yes I'll be thinking of you too @Shaz51... hopefully I'll be able to read a screen to catch up on your news.

I have pink and white hellebores, a yellow polyanthus,  pale yellow Cheerfulness narcissus, and a tall pink Lorraine Lee rose all in the ground.  I have a red cyclamen in a pot. One of my cymbidium orchids is in bud but I'm not sure of the colour. 

This afternoon I saw a butcherbird in my backyard. I'd heard one singing last week and was pleased as I haven't had them for a long time.

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

Glad you have a courtyard @Ru-bee 👍

I have inherited my mum's gardens and pot plants which there is a lot 

Too many says my husband
