LOL, sorry, I had this awful picture of Lesley doing a "squirt of manure" on her orchids. ROTFLMAO.
Hello dalfyre, bit its cold in Christchurch! Brrrrrr! Your Violets and Witchhazel are nice pics, and something different for us. I have Native violets, that I have now given up trying to control. They make a good ground cover.
I might have a go at a Vireya, Lesley, as you say, in the shade house might be the trick. As soon as the new one is finished, I will have some room in my old one for other things. I have seen a Vireya growing further south, in a protected spot, in a garden that gets frost, so it must be possible!
This is my recovery shelf, for newly potted/bought plants (old Shade house)
