Have a little scratch at the stems, if green you are in businesses, if brown and the “ bark” of the branches is loose I am afraid it is a bin job....
Agree the shrub does look very bonny but not a hope in snowballs of growing up here if it is borderline in most parts of the UK without a fair...
Well I am a wee bit ahead of you atm. No doubt for the first and only time! I also will no doubt have spent a fortune of electricity with mine...
I’ve done this too @JWK when I couldn’t get any Belle de Fontenay and used some of my previous years ones I had intended on eating! Friend who was...
I grow most of my Anya outside but also grow some in tubs in the greenhouse for an early crop. These are what I use, think they’re about 50ls....
Hmm,well that’s a thought. I was planning on charging about £5 for a 2 ltr pot of tubers. Maybe I should double that:heehee:. Mind you most of the...
Well that is a gold star for you. The wee bu..er known as Pancake swiped my biro which was made for me by a friend, the outer is wood and is now...
My absolute favourite is Anya, which is small waxy and totally delicious both cold and hot but like it best in potato salad. It is quite knobbly...

Well done @Plantminded and @Silver surfer you are both correct. I did not really know what to call the corms/ tubers/ rhizomes, they look like...
Thanks @smallkernowgarden and @Nigel coad. I will post up a photo of the small corms tomorrow, maybe you could tell me if these are typical for...

Lol, you would be more than welcome as it is a good doer not fussed as to growing conditions and happily survives in our less than balmy climate...
I can also attest to Shiney hybrids! I sowed their offspring a couple of weeks ago in a heated propagator and after, despite a hellish cold spell,...
Thanks @Perki, had a look on the net re your suggestion and not sure the leaves are right. I grow literally dozens of hardy geraniums and none of...
Can anybody identify this hardy Geranium? [ATTACH] To me anyway it is unusual in that it grows from a string of little orange coloured corms...
If I could only grow 1 variety it would be Anya, it’s a waxy 2nd early related to Pink Fir but much less susceptible to blight. Stores well but...
Absolutely agree, normally our postie does the same for me and takes letters etc if already stamped saving a round trip of about 5 miles to the...
Yes Pete, the hard roe is like compressed eggs. Usually pale pinky orange with a darker more orange “ skin”. Cold smoked salmon is fine if and it...
Cod’s roe is really tasty if you can get it. I think it comes in 2 different forms, something tells me this but could be wrong. The harder roe is...
