    It is bloody awful! We are not used to this, It is only 10.8c now and drizzly. We had a surprising 11mm of dirty drizzle yesterday and more expected today. Van hasn't even gone out yet!, is on the back of my chair. I see the sun peeking out somewhere.

    New Gardener - help!

    Latest moan from you and me 2026

    It could be the seller does not have stock, but wants to maintain their ranking in the search, so they keep the listing active but at a price that is almost certain to mean no-one will buy the item. :)

    Anyone struck fig tree cuttings before?

    Here's photos of the other 2 that struck before I potted them on. I may try and take a few more softwood cuttings just to increase my stock.

    Plants you don't grow

    Definitely not colourblind; I just don't like variegated plants with the exception of the silvery marking on Arum italicum.
