Hi Luna, LRC here,
of-course bells can be removed. I would have done so long ago, if I had nimble human fingers.
I like hiding in the garden, in bushes, especially, to spy on the birds & butterflies, to sneak up & surprise them, ... hehehehehe.

Oh, that LRC, I know what you are thinking! People put in a lot of care & effort into their gardens, & there you go, springing out of a bush, shaking half the leaves (& sometimes flowers), from the branches!
What am I to do?
I'm not trying to garden myself, anymore.
I like when something actually grew for me. So few things did. Most of the problem is the ground we have here - needs a complete overhaul. If there are doctors for soil, that's what we need here.
However, BB Cafe has beautiful soil, which will grow the most marvelous fruits, veg & flowers you can imagine.
I'd like dahlias, big & showy enough for my eyes to see. I once saw a show about people growing them for show, prizes & such. But I wouldn't expect perfection. I don't mind if they are lopsided, just so long as they are big flowers with bright & boldly coloured.
Last year I grew an onion, a brown onion to see how it would flower. That was fun. Bronion was a lovely onion plant, which I cared for like looking after a pet.
You've got some lovely memories of gardening with your mum; memories to treasure.
