I am talking about past failures (one in summer, another in autumn), but I was about to try again. I was actually told that now is the best time...
I don't think pictures would help here, I think I can explain it clearly enough without.My garden has two paths down it that form into a point,...
I've had another look and there's something I should mention, the one pot that is under a cloche has no mould on it. Not a spot.
As the title suggests, I've noticed mould growing on my plant pots. All the ones that I've planted with seeds have white, cotton wool-like mould...
I'd like to grow some redcurrant plants, but I don't have the money to buy bare-root plants. I don't know anybody I can take cuttings from either,...
It had a bamboo cane, only three feet tall but it had one. The head was huge and peeked above the top of the fence where it caught the strong...
My sunflower fell over and a most of the roots snapped. This was yesterday, I stood it up almost immediately, replanted it with the ball of roots...
Thanks a lot, I'll just be a bit more patient then. They've started growing back the way they came lately so I'll turn them around tomorrow....
As I passed the Works in my city centre a while ago I saw a basket labelled "seeds" but I didn't have time to look. I'll be sure to look next...

I'll keep this nice and short. I have 5 large coleus plants in a pot in my living room and there are white spots on some of them. It started on...

I planted several gladiolus bulbs and five of them recently flowered. All five of them have fallen or leaned badly though, how can I fix this? I...
For the first one I'd like to know both what it is and whether the birds will have any interest in those seed-like things growing on it. If not...
I'll take your advice to heart and leave bindweed well alone. I'm not very good at pulling out weeds as it is so I shouldn't really be encouraging...
No, I'm not sure of that one. That was a guess based on the amount of complains I hear of bindweed and how supportive people gardeners I knew were...

Bindweed is every gardeners worst enemy right? Even I pull it and I'm normally reluctant to pull weeds out unless they're in the way. Then again,...
This morning I was debating whether or not my morning glory plants had been hardened off enough in 12 days. While I was advised 10 days was...
I'm doing as you say, and that plant pot is outside in the sun and I'll bring it back in when the sun goes down. The plants are drooping though,...
