      Good luck with the flame tree seeds. They'll need a lot of protection, warmth and light, as they're definitely not hardy in this country. Do you have a warm conservatory to keep them in during the winter?

      Just ordered some top soil for delivery next Friday so will be preparing the area this weekend. Once it down, I will then wait 5/6 weeks before getting some turf down. Then my wife can quite whining about the mess.

        I've not got a conservatory but I'll find a space for it somewhere. Been reading that you also grow it as a bonsai tree

            Oh bother :sad:

            At least it'll keep the badgers off it, they don't like jeyes fluid, not like Armandii.

              I accidently Jeyes Fluided my trough full of brand new daffodil bulbs I'd not long planted. I was on pins waiting to see if any shoots emerged. I'm glad to say they have so all may not be lost Jack especially as you've given it a shower!

                      It will be when I get all the non compostable stuff out of it, like large logs, coconuts, plant pots etc that Sis dumps on there :doh:

                      Barrow that you get from doing surveys, like the Clarks boots I wear and the other stuff :) DSCN0447.JPG
