Mice? A few years ago I went into the GH one morning and found a few like that. Next morning they were all snipped off, and I found the leaves...
Any chance of posting larger photo's @Palustris ? I can't really tell much from these. :smile:
Same here, rain, wind, hail, followed by clear skies and sunshine. 5 mins later, and it's back to the rain etc! Not seen a 'normal' April like...
Yes, most cucurbits require some heat to germinate, otherwise the seed can rot.
About 6" below the level of the gravel, you'll probably find the foundations of the wall spreading about 5-6" outwards from the wall, so you may...
I grew tall peas (Lord Leicester) a few years ago and didn't pinch them. If you have a lot of sparrows, then you'll need to protect them until...
You may well be right, pete. Looking closer, I think the tie to the little stake looks a bit tight on the azalea and wonder if it strangled...
Dying while still carrying leaves isn't a good sign. As it sounds like you looked after them well, I'd suspect a disease like phytophthora or...
Hi @Dovefromabove I grew a couple of plants which I picked-up at a local private house which used to sell seedlings of various veg (via an...
Or pronounce them! :biggrin:
I thought hesperis matronalis, but not sure.

As long as you line the inside with black plastic or pond liner etc., and cut some slits in the bottom for drainage, I'm sure it will be fine.
Virus problems usually start on the fully formed canes (from aphids feeding on the soft young growth), but soon travels down to the roots....
I think I'd remove that particular plant, which looks like it is infected with a virus. Most viruses are transmitted via aphids on raspberry...
Yeah, it's caused by a fungus (Blumeriella kerriae) which suddenly appeared. Kerria was always completely disease-free until then. I used to...
I think a lot of folk lost their Kerria japonica to 'leaf and twig blight' over the last decade, so a nice find. I used to use it in heavily...
Hi @RoisinMcGuire Any bush or tree will benefit from a grass-free base, at least while they are young, as grass will take away a lot of...
Those thin black roots in your original photo could be the 'bootlaces' of Honey Fungus. If you try and unearth some, check that there are no...
Hi @CarolineL Yes, I was surprised at how well it did! The peaches all tended to ripen simultaneously, so the harvest involved giving away a lot...
Separate names with a comma.
