Your clematis is off to a good start, Linda, but then it always has done well up in those airey heights ;D No joking, mine doesn't even have leaves yet.

Then fuchsia and I think a bay leaf, not sure what the last climber is, surely not sweatpea? At any rate, it has buds already.

I see the balcony is still providing plenty of healthy looking plants, I just don't know how you do it! Do post up more pix as they develop! :D

The seventh one down, Linda, is what I thought was a Bay Leaf.

That last pic looks to be the essence of spring and easter, all in one basket! :D Well done!

I see that your balcony is still a very busy place Linda, you certainly make the most of the available space!

david just bought that little plant today and pushed it in the hanging basket and ive got seeds in the 2 baskets waiting for them to grow so by the summer they should be lovely and full of flowers, just took pics of the balcony with the sun going down putting them up:

Just love those flowers, Linda, really pretty. I think they are the ones that bloom the whole season long.

Like you, I also don't know which pic is nicer, so thanks for showing us both.

Well I have to say that I prefer the second one, as the light is catching the petals beautifully!
