I have a full sun area with a trellis and wonder what your suggestions would be for quick-growing plants suitable for containers on the patio....
28C today, so watered the pots and deadheaded those that really needed it.
My better half and I went to a garden centre that had just been taken over by a big, southern brand to buy seeds at 75% off, plus some tools at a...
