Basically Oriental Trumpet Lilies "re-badged"

looking intimate and delightful D... Jenny

1 layer is fine, but if you want to put the sleeper "on edge" you may have to anchor it - as it won't be as stable. I drilled mine (you need a LONG drill bit!) and knocked some rebar through, and a couple of feet into the ground below. I have mine stacked 3-high I think, and just held in place...

I don't think it's a "suggestion", Clueless

ok i will keep them in their pots i think all will need repotting. When i do in spring shall i add a little rotted manure in aswell as they probably be kept in their pots till end of the year! Shame as im going miss all the growing season and got to fight the urge not to buy any plants or sow...

That looks really good.....

PS. are you going to keep it in a pot???

really easy as a member on here sent me some cutting @Scotkat material through the post. You need about 4 inches long , nip the top out to make it break buds all along its length strip off the bottom leaves about a two inches , place around the edge of a pot and put in a clear plastic bag ,...

Loads ... Onions, Garlic, Asparagus, Lupins, Aconites ...

I don't think its necessary. They re hardy. If the plants are very small, and have not been acclimatised to being outside then "maybe", otherwise I very much doubt it - and you may encourage them to be cosy and start into leaf early.If we get some bitterly cold weather (below -5C say, or if...

I sold "collect only" chilli plants a couple of years ago - they were already in 1.5 litre pots so there was no way I could post them (although some people messaged and asked if I could). Didnt get too many bids - but they did sell - and a couple of people come back to buy every year privately.S

I would give them a go, seeds when purchased have a use by date of 2 years or more.

Oh Thank You, That is just what I wanted to know, Will get some tomoorow altho better wait until it stops raining for it gets diluted !

They are Ringneck Parrakeets Stephen and seen in many parts of the country now.

well cold is on it's way, but the increased light levels, and suns heat make it feel much better than say, November.

Why not cover the sink with some small hole mesh & them cover that with Hypertufa the mesh will hold the mix..I think it is wonderful stuff.. I was going to do some last year but didn't get round to it.. Hopefully this year though..

I think we all start getting restless about now. I will be out there at the slightest provocation now.

Thanks noisette. I try to be as ecological as possible, so I'm not really into spraying things with artificial chemicals and up to now I haven't needed to (attitudes have changed a lot here over the last few years - there are more and more council owned organic allotments and people are becoming...

That is easily rectified with bulbs and tubers. Colchicum Cyclamen Crocus Iris reticulata etc, etc, etcCheck this out......................RHS Plants and Flowers bookIt is divided into sections - trees, shrubs, bulbs, herbaceous perennials etc. Each of these sections is divided up into...

Natural news is clearly a conspiracy setup. In my honest opinion I believe 99% of conspiracy sites are operated by the government or huge corporations with a vested interest in spreading misinformation and the owner of natural news according to what I have just read worked for (and probably...
