Wonderful photo's @Scroggin :smile:
It depends on how long they are prepared to wait for fruit? I wouldn't expect apples for at least 2 years, cherry & plums for 3, pears for 4,...
Sweet box (Sarcococca), maybe?
Heuchera?
Most fungi need a few close-ups of the gills and stem to have much chance of ID, but it might be Gymnopus fuscopurpureus?
I have Black bryony which isn't such a problem to handle as the stems and leaves are smooth, although when I tried to dig it out I couldn't get...
It's White Bryony rather than black. If you leave it, you should get a lot of berries over the winter, which can look wonderful. As @NigelJ...
I think the one you were originally thinking of (tight bunches of twigs/leaves) is Witches' broom' @Selleri :smile:
Looks like Robin's pincushion, if it's on a rose or related species.
I'm sure they'll be fine. The nepeta will rocket upwards in spring and usually then flops over, so I always planted in the middle of a border, so...
Definitely worth trying, given recent winters. I'm not sure how much light they may need in winter, so would probably wrap the pot as you say and...
As far as I know, they are completely hardy and need to be outside. They do well in pots, so I would pot it on now and place it outside in partial...
The only alternative is a systemic insecticide (i.e. one which is absorbed into the plant), if you can find one these days?
They look very healthy - look forward to seeing some flowers (might be next year, though.) Mine always get rust whenever I try to grow them...
I'd guess it is just natural variability. Were the seeds from a mixed packet, or a specific variety?
I agree. Stick to the little ones though. :smile:
Wild flowers require a low-nutrient soil, so don't add compost, manure or fertilizer. Make sure that 'Yellow rattle' (a parasitic flower which...
Yes, no problem in removing those lower branches. Monkey Puzzle trees naturally shed their lower branches over time, anyway. Remove whole...
A lawn 'lute' is just another word for the type of rake you have built. :smile:
I think they are Canary Marguerites (Argyranthemum frutescens subsp. canariae.) If they are, they must be kept above 5C and won't survive frost,...
Separate names with a comma.
