    Rhody flowers

    Hi Nigel, Thanks for your reply. Yes I think next summer a mulch will be in order. I'm thinking we may have moved them into an area that's too dry. We'll see. Thanks again

    Lost all flowers.

    I always use rain water when possible as the water here is chalky.I don't bother about anything microscopic in the water, it's all part of the natural world as far as I'm concerned.

    Can Ribes sanguineum 'King Edward VII' be Coppiced

    I'd say immediately after flowering is best. But you should still be ok for flowers next year.

    Recommendations of plants that grow tall but are spindly/flimsy please

    Agastache grows tall and flimsy, though I never had a problem with it falling over even without staking, looks pretty and attracts bees like crazy.

    Solanum Glasnevin - Chilean potato plant
