General Gardening Discussion

Hello Webmaster Thanks for your brilliant site. I have received two replies to my question already. Hope the changeover goes well. Would hate to lose the site now I have found it!! Will tell my daughter as she has a new house with a jungle for a garden! Thanks again.

Master, at �£1.14 a litre, you are joking.

I vote Carol.

Hence my 6 weeks?No reason why I can't start my veggies off in the greenhouse though?

Thank you again, Lavender.Hello, long lost friend Mona Lisa ... I hope you are well and happy in the South of France. Thank you also for your contribution to this what I think is an unusal fruit.We both love raspberries and it just seemed different. It's settling in well but we have...

Ground cover stuff would be good, but I have a lot of perennials that die back in winter that I really like. If I fill the borders with evergreen ground cover, they'll have no space when they do come back. [ 24. March 2008, 03:22 PM: Message edited by: daisybelle ]

Could be. Trying hard to remember when we lived upt'north I didn't seem to be able to keep primulas from one year to the next.

I Only cut my Wildlife hedge Ie Hawthorn Alder,Field Maple ,Dog Rose ,Blackthorn Biannually late Winter.

I have always planted and left my lily's in the ground over winter and the following year they grow just as good but spread around 20 cm each year just like Phlox paniculata

`potty, Ive had acer pal.diss.atro in a pot for about 10 years. It gets fed about once a year, if I remember, and it is thriving. The person who will really know, though is Whis4ey.

thanks all. the ferns are biggish plants but most of the others are just plugs. think I will pot them on and eave for week or so until the harsh weather hopefully goes!

Have fun Jack, they are pretty plants, just pull the self seeders out, they are easy to spot. Another plant that compliments them as well as euphorbias, is the purple Heuchera also looks nice at the front of the border with them... They have spikes of pink or white flowers.*

Well hope it was of some help.. I know you will feel a bit silly taking the garment in, but believe me, I worked in a florists for a while & you would be amazed what people brought in for matches..! :D They may be able to find more choices for you... So don't be bashful......

I've just updated my other thread... Thanks, M
