    I love plants and gardening but have no earth to garden in - instead I have three small gardens filled with containers, ranging from full shade to full sun. I am in love with roses - which I grow in containers, like to rescue bees and don’t use chemicals. In the last three years, I have transformed three stone and concrete deserts into small green havens and love to see the animals that come to visit. I love sharing photos and have been looking for somewhere to ask all these questions that I have! :)

      Welcome @ManekiNekoUK, I stopped using chemicals in the garden a few years ago and the diversity of insect life visiting my garden nowadays is really interesting! Because the insects are doing well I also get bats visiting sometimes. Look forward to seeing photos of your container gardens!

        Welcome @ManekiNekoUK I've never used chemicals in the garden and it's great to see everything thriving.

                  My first question concerns bindweed. In a container. Around a rose. I’m not sure which forum I should go to, or do I not have to choose a forum??
