I’ve just reduced one of my Griselinias from eight foot to three foot @Novice Gardener Laura. They bounce back quickly. I have two hedges of them...
Today I repotted a small fan palm (Chamaerops humilis). It was in a “faux lead” planter which looked good when I bought it a few years ago but it...
Is that the one that's out of stock @ViewAhead? (Been suspended perhaps :biggrin:.)
Dahlias and Salvias are sun lovers @Selleri, but I’ve grown them in shade with reduced flowering. In containers they can be happier with a bit of...

I’ve spent the afternoon moving some perennials around and adding some new ones which I’ve been keeping in my garage for the past few days,...
This is another one that I like @Escarpment which is tall and columnar, Panicum Northwind (with a dwarf Pampas behind).[ATTACH]
