My main success this year has been the living willow hut. From a start as 2ft wands, the willows with better roots which I put in the corners are...
Shame you're not close - I could at least have got bags of stuff out of the car for you! Any friendly neighbours you can bribe with a bottle of...
Clay is perfectly recoverable. My first garden hadn't had a spot of work in the 30 years since the house was built, and it was solid white sterile...
Hard to tell. They aren't always right under the stuff. What kind of texture is it?
If it's clay then you don't need blood, fish and bone. What you need is organic matter, and lots of it. Well rotted horse manure, composted leaf...
As Nigel says, the pic isn't entirely clear. But it could be woolly aphid. If it is, I've had some reasonable success clearing them on my apple...
Trespass isn't a crime any more, but "criminal trespass" certainly is.You are 100% within your rights to deploy razor wire or an electric fence...
That is literally the definition of "criminal trespass". You can't call the police to get someone off your property, but if they're damaging it...

One thought while it's not yet too humongous is that it might survive removal and replanting elsewhere. A gardener with a mini digger could...

Even if you could get a large enough solar panel, it'll stop as soon as it gets dark. For me, part of the appeal of a water feature is hearing it...
Watering in the evening is usually best for everything IMO. Even if you water when it's cool in the morning, the water doesn't necessarily have...
@shiney I'm not sure I should ask, but why does it look like you've got blood stains on your fingertips? Do we need to worry about what happened...
I'm the same in reverse. Being originally from Lancashire, I see signs round your way saying "London and the North", and just think "nope".:)
The thing with aluminium is that the outer oxide coating actually protects the rest of the metal from corroding. It's not like steel - steel is...
Welcome to big sky country!Since I moved down south in 99, I've lived in various bits of Cambridgeshire from Willingham down. I'm just about out...
Vinca will live anywhere. The problem is that it won't stay put - it's constantly spreading. If you bring it in, expect to have to cut it back...
