It just goes to show we shouldn't throw any idea out of the window - there's bound to be a place for it somewhere!<br /><br />RO - How interesting! Thanks for adding the info - now I know why I couldn't get everything lined up when I took the photo. Now I'm wondering if you were involved in the excavations around Temple Quay...<br /><br />Juliet - well if you change your mind, Bristol's pretty good for planting. There's more to come...<br /><br />Karen - glad the Open ID thing worked for you :)VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-91705827464377667162009-07-19T20:23:53.362+01:002009-07-19T20:23:53.362+01:00VP - I am also coming around to the idea that publ...VP - I am also coming around to the idea that public planting of one (or two) species works and although orange is not my best colour - it is quite jolly.<br />I am trying out my open id here, on a friendly blog :)<br />KAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-65735281850637216442009-07-19T18:14:56.725+01:002009-07-19T18:14:56.725+01:00I love orange flowers, though I'm not that kee...I love orange flowers, though I'm not that keen on Geraniums (or bedding plants generally).<br /><br />R has to go to 2 meetings in Bristol later in the year, so I might just get to see how bright they are for myself. Hmmm ... no, I think I will probably stay in the cottage and rest so I have the energy to go and see some gardens on other days instead!Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861589817615423847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-80858836114543819352009-07-19T16:40:37.656+01:002009-07-19T16:40:37.656+01:00I love the orange, what a fantastic colour.

The whole level of the Broadmead area of Bristol is rather funny (at some point in the late med/ post med period they tried to change it by several meters!), I was involved in the excavation and post-excavation work of the Broadmead development (and Finzels Reach more recently). Bristol has some fascinating archaeology :o)Rothschild Orchidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05211151492115918365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-48998240803113570262009-07-19T16:33:15.470+01:002009-07-19T16:33:15.470+01:00Orange is not my favorite color, though I'm no...Orange is not my favorite color, though I'm not surprised it's Joy's:) But it is a bold color and perfect for a planting such as this. I agree that mass plantings of one or two plants work the best in places like this and make more of an impact.<br /><br />Just caught up with your post about the exhibit at Trafalgar Square--how fun! If I lived in London, I think it would be fun to be part of this "artwork." Maybe I would take some flowers and a laptop with me and blog:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-55035056992983719672009-07-19T14:31:05.918+01:002009-07-19T14:31:05.918+01:00I love orange--it's hard to find true ornage p...I love orange--it's hard to find true ornage plants; butterfly weed and guara are two of my favorites.Monica the Garden Faeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06369882350990949968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-55442875066289780412009-07-19T11:54:44.105+01:002009-07-19T11:54:44.105+01:00VP girl ! ..
