Found my first vine weevil larvae of the year today, and ordered my nematodes this afternoon. I used the nematodes last year, and it seemed to...
Gawd luv ya all. I knew you'd know a way. :) I've really tried picking and rubbing it off, merleworld. This stuff is evil. It's like a sticky...
This is driving me mad. I've peeled the labels off a couple of pots and there is a ton of the glue still left behind. I've tried soapy water and...
I'm in the same position, captainhastings (good name, by the way :blue thumb:). I've got some seed potatoes in grow bags that I put in at the...
I saw some fruit trees in Poundland the other day. Definitely an apple tree there. Not sure what else, or what price. Not sure if Thompson and...
I agree with Joolz (edit - and Val :)). I've looked in my RHS Plant Book (don't know what I'd do without it) and that pic you've got looks exactly...
I've named all the bits in my garden. I've got the Woodland Corner (a 6' x 4' corner that faces NE and never sees the sun) I've got the Bee &...
I was watching the coverage the other day when Alan Titchmarsh was in that garden with the turquoise blue pool and the orange flowers in the...

Oh blimey. I've got tiny pond with 2 goldfish in it. They've been chasing each other around for weeks. I spotted one today near the surface and it...
Thanks, Kristen. The Jonquilla family looks like the one. I may go for a different one in that family, there's some beauties in there. And looking...
Back in the autumn I bought a back of 50 mixed tulip and daff bulbs for a fiver from Morrisons. They're starting to open up now. And I've got this...
The roof of my mosaic bird box that I painted in a shade of blue to match the tiles, then artificially aged by adding green fence paint over the top.
My first attempt at Pique Assiette mosaic which was to save a knackered ornamental bird box, and some chipped vintage plates from the bin.
I love making things, and I love creating, and adapting things to go into my tiny garden. This is a selection of them.
What a fab pot. Love it. I'd be tempted to put something sculptural in that. I'd probably put something you could clip into a ball shape. Box?...
Phew. Thanks everyone. Although you nearly had me there, Ziggy. For a minute I thought my plant had been done for by the blanket weed if yours was...
I'm just wonder what my Caltha Palustris should look like right now. I'm a bit concerned because I had a terrible blanket weed problem in the pond...
