General Gardening Discussion

lol it is actually, im getting an unhealthy obsession with my plants, veg and seeds lately :D

If it is hoggin underneath, you could get plenty of good aerobic, and probably anaerobic exercise weilding a pickaxe!! And use what you've broken up to make a lovely rockery!! That's pretty much what we did at one point, except it was a concrete path, and by we, I mean husband!!

Bunny hunting? Was it dangerous? Mauled by a rabbit, must be agonising. What a dangerous life you lead Paladin :D :D :D

If you want it, you can get it from T&M http://plants.thompson-morgan.com/uk/en/list/full-index/c/11. Good luck!

only a quick sketch, original masterpiece, �£2m if you want it!!

I used to have a similar problem and I still use 2" netting rolled over freshly planted patches, I leave them there until the new seedlings are well up and then roll it/them up for next year or re-use for a later sewing. It also stops large birds digging around.

thanks for that rossco.

on the reverse cover of Gardens montly i see this product advertised, looks like it will prevent agressive root migration, is it any use as an edging for lawns?

:D :D :D :D And I bet that's on a good day! ----------------------------------A couple of years ago, I bought one of those telescopic garden hose wands from Aldi for about �£7. Saw them in B&Q later, same make, same model about �£15.........I like Aldi

Withered and a brown as if dying really

I wouldn't worry it was prolly roosting - its early for wren's to be on the next. At the moment the male will be building/choosing a number of nests for his lady love to choose which she prefers.Smashing little birds - very much ground feeders amongst the leaf litter. So don't tidy your beds...

In respect of the apple trees - the sap is rising and therefore I would not attack these til leaf fall in the autumn. At that time remove the crossing branches, and then prune back. You should be able to see the fruiting spurs - best not to prune these out - if you want apples next year :D

After flowering I nip off the dead heads and get another bloom...All but Montana get this treatment...and I've got seven which flower for months

They can climb the stairs, we had one in our bathroom. The cat may have bought it in, but it was funny when my wife found it. Boy, did she scream.

I agree with F & T, it has been competing for moitsure and nutrients and looks like it is losing. Nice Camelia though. :(

Do you think THAT would scare off others? :D :D

ermmm...were you a close relative to Queen Victoria?
