Everything is waking up :)[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I have a shrub rose ("Wandering Minstrel") that I planted last year as a bare root. It didn't do much then but this year is starting to put on a...
I've used Cuprinol on the shed, coldframe, flowerbed borders and now a planter, and don't have any complaints so far. Wilkinsons often have it...
Not for a while I don't think - I don't have space for more than one or two, and after last year's failure I gave in and bought an adult plant...
Unless you're me, in which case they won't germinate at all two years running :wallbanging: Am I missing a trick?
Is the same true of parsnips? I had very poor germination last year so was thinking of trying to start them in the propagator this year to keep a...
Thanks @Verdun, yeah we're warming up steadily here, it's been over 7 degrees fairly consistently for the last week or so. I can't for the life...

I wish it was a subject I was more knowledgable about @Mike Allen; nutrition and digestion is fascinating and diverse, and there is so much (often...
Hit the nail on the head there @"M" ! :rolleyespink:
Just to clarify, @Mike Allen , dogs aren't carnivorous, they are omnivores, and need a mix of both meat and plant matter to provide a complete and...
Finally a warm dry day here! Potted on lots of seedlings - coreopsis, guara, cosmos, gazina, dianthus and tomatos. Space is tight but I'm a bit...
I'm attempting to grow it for the first time this year; hadn't put any thought into the hows and wheres until now, but reading this I'll do a bit...
Thanks all :) Will keep an eye out for them next time I'm at the GC to keep fillin my shadey corner.
Spotted this in a neighbour's front garden earlier. From the positioning I would guess it is a shade-lover, at first I thought maybe a lamium or...
@Jack Sparrow I bought a couple of fritillary plants last spring, and then topped up with bulbs in the autumn. So far this year the original...
