Yes I did have a look. And there is one in my town. But you have to register with Yahoo and give your full name and post code - which is a unique identifier, and e-mail address. Little concerned at 4,000,000,000 knowing my e-mail. I am sure there is one spammer out there, if not two.Would...

I was given some seeds. I wasn't sure what to do with them so I soaked some, filed some and just planted some in the greenhouse. No sign of life yet. Perhaps I should have chilled some as well.

That could be a bit of a problem, because I piled up some of the spoil from the pond around the edge thereby raising the edges and I didn't have to dig so deep. Therefore the edges slope away from the pond quite steeply.The main reason for this thread is to see if anyone can identify a small...

Thanks for looking for me!Regards,Nick

What a beautiful colour your hellebore is!!!!! Will have to get the seed trays out very soon too, I think .....

hi all, a weak mix of jeyes fluid helps, say a cap full in 4 gallons, english money!( approx 20 euro litres *$%^) agree about Armillatox as well

Dear Sir/ Madam,Please find below some information about my sale of Crystal Earth Soil.Last year i performed in a dancing troupe at different wedding events all around England, and helped in organising most of these events' decorations adding some extra colour and fantastic touch to halls...

I would suggest seeding the new lawn area. Though you can hire a turf cutter to take up your old lawn or just by some turf in? rolawn and turfshop are good web sites + they have lots of info on what not to do and what to do.

practically all my gardening experience has involved doing exactly this kind of thing - and I NEVER, EVER use chemicals!! I hate using them, unless there's a really good reason (like dealing with fungus, with Frogesque's favourite armillatox!) If you thoroughly dig out the roots of all...

A few years ago I had the same problem and it re-occurs, a little, in a wet Spring/Summer but not to its original really bad condition. I still have some Iron Sulphide Or is it Sulphide of Iron in my shed and water it on. This is the active ingredient in most moss killers. It will darken the...

net2379 As far as I can see Ixia Viridiflora flowers May/June... put it in google ... second site is "how to grow ixia viridiflora" hope this helps (apart from sourcing)

Blockwell - not sure how long your intending to keep it - weather will degrade it, and weeds will colonise the rest if not stored appropriately. But if your talking about a few months, then should be ok'ish.

I would agree with Fran. Try to get an idea of what style you like. Modern, formal, cottage garden, big open space for kids, shrubs, or flowers etc. I did this by looking through pictures in books.Is the house at the top, with the garden falling away? Or is the house at the bottom looking...
