Thank you all for the possitive reactions, i am not happy with the state especially the small allotment is in but i just have to do with it for the rest off the year.. Couldnt spend time in them what i hoped for lately.. Just back from them with 9 buckets full off flowers, put 12 bunches off flowers in front off my house at the street, they will be gone in less then a day, most off them even payed for i did my job now my wife is making flower arrangements to fill every free spot in living room, corridor and even toilet.. But still half off the varieties will be changed this year, already making a list off other dahlia species i want to try. Especially looking for good cutting / show flowers. But will share new list when ready with it...

I dont really count what i puton the street and what is in the small strongbox, only sometimes you see there are some flowers gone and there is nothing or just small change in it. 2 euro for 10 to 12 flowers isnt to much i think. Will do it again next year, now stopped with it becuase we had so much rain that the quality of the flowers isnt good enough anymore. Better dont sell and people will be back next year then sell crap and nobody is happy.... Made more then enough for new tubers and some help to clean up gardens later, because gout is again giving big problems Now having high dosis prednisolon, not good but just hope it works..

What miserable customers Edwin. There are a lot of smallholdings here in our village with produce at their gates and I could not imagine anyone not putting the money in the box.

We know some of the problems Edwin, but if you treat the forum as a relaxation and a record of your achievements, it will help.

First focus are my allotments and home gardens next to my regular work and then sometimes the energy is completely gone to make long postings etc. But its nice to show people the forum sometimes and show the state of progress Trying to catch up every few days to change my mind like you say Cherry.

I know what you mean about posting when you are tired and have no energy left. However, you are an inspiration to all of us Edwin.
