Other Plants

That’s good news Thank you.

excellent thanks , may look at that as a bigger project But may help keep the top trim Thanks again for all the advice

The B. ericafolia was looking really sick and yellow, so I moved it to the conservatory a fair bit warmer. Its now brown.

My windows don't get much light. The Peace Lilies have never seemed to mind, but it wouldn't be enough light for a lot of houseplants.I think I need to pay more attention to giving them regular Baby Bio, keeping their leaves cleaned of dust with plain water, and not cleaning the white...

They are bare rooted they are called double delight, I was planning to put them in the same place but I'm starting to think that nothing is going to grow there and maybe I should grow them in containers insteadI put sand and soil in the holes I dug for them to improve drainage, but I had no...

Thank you for the information. Oh good because it's minus 4 here in Leeds in coming weeks!

Thanks for that. I shall leave them on.

Thanks Perki. I shall attack it after this years display.

Thank you very much for your reply and help, I'll follow your advice on the yellow leaves ....probably will lead me to understand what pattern the chlorosis of the leaves is following. Thanks <3

Oh, no! Right, let the interrogations begin, no mercy

That was another one that got turfed out, however Allium tripedale (nectaroscordum) is a far better behaved relative, slightly shorter and more delicate flowers are less droopy, so I now grow this one.

Thank you for the ideas @Michael HewettWe currently live in a rental place and most of the double glazing on the windows is shot, so they aren't as warm as the kitchen window where the Orchid is, so it would be nice to have some plants that don't mind being a bit chilly and bring in some...

We went to friends yesterday and this is their Begonia 'Argenteo-guttata', Angel Wing Begonia, which was a cutting of mine from last Summer. This is it's second blooming. The lower stems are already cuttings of the original. It lives on their balcony.This is the mother plant who has lived...

I had a hunt round and found a plant labelled as G yoshinoi in a pot. It had finished flowering a while ago and needs a bit of TLC. However it appears to be low growing with leaves unlike Yeo's description and your photos. It actually looks quite like the description given for the seeds I...

Possibly a bit late this year, but I would spray with a systemic insecticide. It might stop re-infestation next year.Have a close look at the shoots, the kind of scale insect I'm thinking of is like sticky yellow blobs that you can wipe off the stems. Tried to take a picture of one of my...

Thank you for your responses. I am glad that it is mother nature playing with me and not reacting to me!

I have these as well, but I'm going to bring them into a shelter for the winter.I've also got T. zebrina in a hanging pot, and it has been in the sun , and another one I don't know the name of but no photo, they can root into the next pot if you're not careful.

I think you have more than one plant in that pot,looks like 3 or 4 to me. They sell them like that to make them appear more busy.

Looks like a Pellaea rotundifolia These can take a dry period better than most other ferns. So it may be salvageable.Give it a good soak, keep slightly damp, and it will hopefully come back.
