Fading now 🤎 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
I thought that was a cluster of moths at first!
@heatherdirtyhands now you’ve said it all I can see is tiny wings 😅🥰
Fascinating detail close up 😮
@jeatacake they’re amazing looking aren’t they! Well, they were before they blew away 😂
@gjones thank you so much Katy 😘😘 you did remember right ☺️❤️
Almost like a lot of little moths! Also belated happy birthday. I hope the rotten weather didn't spoil it🙏🎂 🥂🎈🍹🎆🍰🎊🍾
@jeatacake I’m watching Clarice as I read that so now it’ll be forever known as my Hannibal plant 🤭 thank you Jeff 😘 the bad weather gave me the perfect excuse to stay home and eat cake 😋 perfect birthday in my eyes 😂
Ha ha, I agree! 🧁🎂🍰
@jeatacake I thought you might, given your username 😉😋
Ha ha ha! Yes, it originates from my very first email address, inspired by yours truly stuffing his face with cake at the time! ☺️
@jeatacake 🤣 a pastime I’m far too familiar with 🤭

Loaded with pollen now 🐝 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
Lovely silk tassels. All ready for the bees. Can’t wait for Spring. 😍
@hkyfvr keep hoping to see some on the few flowers I have but they’re still in hiding. Don’t blame them 🥶 at least spring is on the horizon 😁
Wow I’ve never heard of them. Awesome 🤩
They are waiting for the warmer weather. We got to 0 today. Rain and snow tomorrow. Will take quite a while for Spring to arrive here. ❄️☃️
@philstalder pretty boring looking thing until the tassels come out. But when they do! 😍😍😍
@hkyfvr what time of year does it start to warm up for you?
We get warm days to tease us in March and April but we can still get snow in April. May gets warmer. We cannot put annuals safely in the ground until after May24th without the risk of frost. Makes for a shorter summer than you have. 🤦♀️🤷♀️
@hkyfvr that’s so late 🙈 I had no idea your summer was so short 🤯 makes what you grow even more impressive!!!
That is kind of you to say. I will extend the season this year with my newly planted tulips, hyacinths and allium. Also got a few daffs. Yay. 👍😍
@hkyfvr bulbs are always something to look forward to 😁 even the cold shouldn’t stop them 😛
That’s cool. I like those kind of plants. 👍

They're almost glowing.
That’s lovely Kerry 💛
They are amazing Kerry. So unique and beautiful 👍😍
Oh that’s unusual Kerry 😯👌🏼
@novicegardenlover @mich @hkyfvr @gjones @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom thank you all 😄 they don’t look very intricate from a distance but they really change when you look closely 😍😍😍
Very welcome 😍

I’m in love with this plant! 🌾 think training it up a trellis has worked out well. Get to see every single tassel decorating it 😍 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
It is lovely Kerry
It’s so pretty! 😍
How lovely is that 👍😃
It is wonderful that you can see them all climbing up the trellis. Awesome idea. There are so many beautiful tassels. 👍👍😍😍
That looks great 👍
Looks super 🌾🌾🌾👌🏼
Looks wonderful Kerry 💚
@DeborahBanks @mich @crabby58 @hkyfvr @gjones @hebelover @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom @richard.spicer.7906 thank you all so much 🙏🏻 didn’t pay much attention to this plant before the tassels appeared but they really make it special! 🌾
Looks good!! 💛 #trellis
Without the tassels it looks like Ivy, a small tree would look fab..👌🏼
@brightcolours thank you Katie ☺️ it’s a new favourite 😛

Incredible how long these tassels last 😍 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
Wow. Those are still doing so well. Lovely to see. 👍😍
@hkyfvr thanks Diane 😀 they’re slowly opening up and getting longer too! Such an interesting plant 🤍
Always welcome Kerry. Definitely an interesting plant 👍😍
Great plant this, looks even better when mature, covered in those tassles!
@bobbyball thank you Bob 😊 it’s only a few years old so has a lot more maturing to do 😂 hopefully it’ll still look impressive with being trained up a trellis 💚

Starting to fill up the trellis now 💚 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
Looking great Kerry. Really spreading well. 💚😊
@hkyfvr thanks Diane 😛 wanted to show you after we talked about it the other day. Hard to take a photo because the gap between the plant and greenhouse isn’t very wide 🙈🤣
Always welcome Kerry. Thanks for taking the photo. Hope you didn’t injure yourself. Love the tassels hanging down. The foliage is fantastic too. 💚😊
@hkyfvr I can just about squeeze down there but can’t get the phone far enough away for a photo. Just occurred to me I can take it through the greenhouse window 🙈😳🤣
A 💡 lightbulb moment.💡👍🤣😂
@hkyfvr I don’t have many 🤣🤣🤣
I am a few lightbulbs short also. 🤣🤣
@hkyfvr we are in good company at least 😉😉😆

The whole thing is covered in tassels now 🤩#silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
Love the cute tassels and the foliage is lovely. You have the most unique plants I have ever seen. 👍👍😍😍
@hkyfvr thank you Diane 😀 I do sometimes look for things that are a little more obscure. This just fascinates me. Have trained it up a trellis and the tassels look great covering it. Should look amazing in a few years 🤞🏻🤞🏻
@gjones thank you Katy 😄 I’m not too sure what happens but it’s a slow process whatever it is 😂 I know they should get a lot longer but not sure that’ll happen this year 😜
Always welcome Kerry. I see the trellis behind it. You are adventurous with your gardening. Obscure things are fascinating for sure. Will be fun to see this grow and change. 👍😍😍
@hkyfvr I’ll try take a full photo. It’s beside the greenhouse so I get a decent view through winter 😛 a wall of evergreen should look decent when not much else is around 💚
Sounds good Kerry 👍😍

Not sure how this will turn out but trying to train it up a trellis 🤔 #silk-tassel-bush #garrya #garrya-elliptica-james-roof
That should be interesting 🤔 Good luck, I hope it works 💚
Love this shrub ....looking good so far Kerry 👍🙂
Looks good 👍🏻
@pelly not sure it’ll work but was looking a mess so figure it’s worth a try 🤞🏻
@flof1952 thank you Pauline ☺️ it’s such a nice looking plant and seems like it could work being trained this way 🤔 time will tell 😅
@ublaszko thanks Urszula 😁 could make a decent evergreen fence covering 🧐
