Like I said, I got it last year as a tiny 5" plant, probably a cutting. It had a bit of a growth spurt during last years growing season and has...
Thanks. If I snip the top and plant the cutting, is it just a case of dipping it in a bit of rooting hormone and planting at the side of the...
I am 100% certain this is a Dracaena, but what I'm not certain about is the cultivar. Can anyone identify it? Also, it was about 5" tall when I...
The money you'll probably plough into this project, and more than likely fail, would be better off spent extending that lovely tiled patio. Job...
I bought mine back in March, it was very small (see pic) and only a couple of quid. It was amongst some larger specimens and because the light was...
Well, this croton of mine really has been a labour of love. No matter how much light, natural or otherwise I have given it, the best I can seem to...
I believe the initial reasoning behind messing with the clocks in the northern and southern hemispheres was to give an extra hours daylight in the...
I have a good few Calatheas and they have you pulling your hair out. Some of mine are thriving, some just won't to give me a break no matter what...
What Calathea is "stumpy", or to be more precise, what Calathea was stumpy! It doesn't look good.I see you have a vittata and a concinna in your...
I've done exactly the same. There is an area at the side of my shed where I wanted to put a few pots but I didn't want to just sit them on the...
No, that's not mine. Mines the much smaller one shown in post #1.That tree above is one I see everyday on my way to work. I was just showing you...
Here it is. I said that the tree was about 6 feet away from the house. Looking at it more closely I reckon the trunk is more like 5 feet away!!...
There's one particular monkey puzzle on the way to work. It's huge, and about 6 feet away from the house in the front garden!! My guess is it's as...
Thanks for that, I was a little unsure to be honest because I've read they shouldn't be trimmed at all!!However, on the way to work there is...
I planted a 2 foot monkey puzzle about 8 years ago. It is now about 8 feet and i have been thinking about cutting off the very bottom "baby"...
Maybe in the past I've had insects come in from open windows and such to give my chillis a helping hand.It may be too late for this plant now,...
What, as in outside with insects?? It's on an inside windowsill, just like all the others I've had. I've had chillis off all my past plants, also...
I have grown chillis without too much difficulty in the past. However, my latest chilli plant, a Carolina reaper, isn't playing ball at all for...
Yes, houttuynia. I planted a single small plant in my garden in the spring/summer of 2023. In autumn/winter it died back, so I pulled it out,...
I bought a small croton Petra a few months ago. The yellow and orange veining on the leaves attracted me to it at first but I soon realised that...
