Bocking 14 as said is sterile so you need to propagate it by root cuttings or dividing existing clumps
I would wait until it’s dormant so late Autumn, winter. The usual rule of thumb for tress is that the roots are as wide as the canopy. Cherries...
Yes, as @NigelJ says you need to be happy to leave the leaves until they die down. I had dreams of naturalising crocus in our front lawn,...
Agree, the young leaves are very mild so if using I just use a few extra
Our Goldfinches just sit on the branches and wait, impatiently, until the Woodpecker is finished. I don’t think they are scared of anyone. All the...
I’ve never noticed our Nuthatches being aggressive to other birds. We very occasionally get a pair of bullfinches visiting and they are real...
Sorry @DaveyB but are you wanting to plant something instead of having the pots there? There doesn’t seem to be any space between the pots in your...
Quite a lot of tomatoes here, but none ripening yet and some are pea sized. We have hard,y had our blinds down this summer @Goldenlily26 usually...
It might be worth you looking at some of the recent articles on gardening on rubble, building waste etc such as this one Hardcore landscaping: how...
Mine aren’t thugs either, in fact I wish they were a bit more robust :noidea:
I’ve never deadheaded my Japanese anemones @RowlandsCastle Do you do that to stop them seeding or does it encourage more flowers?
We inherited some hops and they are a nightmare. They will grow 6m from ground level in a season and smother anything and everything in their...
Not at all like my damsons @Pete8 which are definitely more oval although that’s assuming they are what I think they are :heehee:
Just to add, our damsons aren’t ripe yet. Fully formed but hard as nails, probably need a couple more weeks or some consistent warm weather
I went down a rabbit hole trying to decide what we had in our garden- plums, damsons, bullace - when we first moved here when the fruit was just...
I would suggest going lower @RowlandsCastle maybe 5ft. They easily put on 2ft a year
Agree with @Leafylearner but the Crocosmia isn’t Lucifer, which is red and taller. I can’t tell the variety, there are quite a few of the smaller,...
It’s probably just waiting to be released into the ground, any feed in its compost will be exhausted by now. Euphorbias are often looking a little...
Have they actually refused when asked or is it that they just aren’t keeping them to a size/height you feel is reasonable? We inherited some...
Aah, that makes sense now. Thank you
