Our garden sanctuary
Thank you, yes we've been here almost 5 years and the garden feels quite private now that everything is growing nicely. It also feels bigger than it is even though we've planted so much out there!...
Thank you, yes we've been here almost 5 years and the garden feels quite private now that everything is growing nicely. It also feels bigger than it is even though we've planted so much out there! It is half the size of our previous garden, but such a lovely relaxing space to spend our time....

Plants you don't grow
I’ve gone off dahlias. Too “in your face”. Don’t like begonias as they tend to look artificial to me. Some gladioli are OK, deeper colours are better than pale.

Yes it is parasitic on mainly hazel and alder but can be on the roots of other trees. The flowering part that @Adam l photographed is the only part of the plant seen above ground and comes up in April/May so @Adam l was very lucky to see it but then so many plants are flowering earlier than usual.

Lack of Knowledge, trying to do a project!!
Convolvulus cneorum is a sun lover so it probably won't be happy there. And it won't take much in the way of frost, so it doesn't tend to last long in any but the mildest areas.
