    Hi Jann in that case I'd cut that open flower off and put in in the shade for a couple of days.

    What are these?

    Indoors, not outdoors (and have now been removed) - these were on a wall in my daughter's bedroom. Are they moth larvae?

    White slugs ruining lawn

    Maybe the slugs are just part of the "landscape" but you also have grubs. I'd lift a piece of turf to see. :dunno:

    Cabbages gone, caulis next?

    I use butterfly netting over all my brassicas, even so one or two find their way in. Rub off the eggs before the blighters hatch.

    Saving a wilting / dying bare root rose

    It's probably going to drop those leaves as a reaction to the drying out, but I would leave it and new shoots may well start sprouting from the leaf axils. Just give it TLC for a while!
