    Fantastic pictures, thanks for posting. I remember the Apollo missions especially the early ones. Unbelievably by the last one or two 16-17 they almost seemed routine, even though space missions are never routine. There have been enough tragedies over the years to emphasise that.

    What shrub is this?

    The one at RHS Rosemoor is over 10 m tall and in flower it's like a yellow wall. Mine is just over 1 m and nearly 3 years old, no signs of flowers yet and the shoots are just developing this spring.

    Plants you don't grow

    24c here but beginning to cloud over, wind has picked up slightly so that is probably it for now at least.
