We have some flowering plants that have the same problem, I would take a picture but it is too difficult for me!

Took these a few days ago when I got leaves up from the small front patch.
The rose was originally one of those miniature ones you buy for indoors. When it stopped flowering I put it in the front garden and it took off - hardly stops flowering except when I prune it.
The yellow is a winter jasmine. (I keep being asked by passers by if it is forsythia )
The other is a Campanula which flowers for ages.

Friends gave me a nyger seed feeder for my birthday it is to attracts siskin, we have never had those, chaffinches and greenfinches, who don;t come anynmore we will se what the robin and sparrows make of it.
