Why suspicious Liz? By the way my photos might improve now I understand my new camera
Got a BIG surprise when I pulled up the willowherb. There were three or four of the chaps on it, and they all promptly fell off, and were none too...
I'd be pretty surprised if they weren't after the summer we've had and the move.. Many of them don't seem to like a lot of sun either in my...
Check out this fellow. An Elephant Hawkmoth caterpillar. Porky or what? Nearly 8cm long.[img][img]
Well deserved. Great site. Thanks to the Webmaster and Administrators. Roll on 5000!
I love stripes, spirals (v.difficult), circles, chequerboard, diamonds, yup all that stuff MF. They make no difference to the job, and they are...
Sounds like paint on wallpaper?! :D
Great garden GardenAngel. I think your pond looks the business. I think Koi are garish AND I like them. Yours are fab, great colouration and...

Well mine's proof that they like lime, and there's lots of it in that garden. I never heard of them needing one soil or another, or I would have...
Curious stuff. I hope there is truth in it as well.
Wish I could help. They grow easily here. Rich chalky soil, almost no pruning, and so far no disease or bugs. Suckers up a bit (though only...
I can't be certain but think it unlikely that the compost will spread the problem as its probably already quite well spread about.Armillarea...
[img][img]I like Clerodendron trichotomum. Lovely scented white flowers offset by those reddish bracts, strange blue berries, and a...
Think you're right Liz. According to my Roger Phillips it's 'found on all types of soil on roadsides, waste places, dunes and fields.Height around...
I'm a gardener!! Have been in the trade since 1983. Its great but - and this sounds familiar - hard work for little reward. Still I haven't...
