General Gardening Discussion

White spathe type flowers will come along soon followed by bright red berrys.I have a clump in my garden, which I left when I reclaimed the area.

I had forgotten to add in my post this morning that the grower of C. graecum in the US gardens in Michigan.Palustris, I don't know if you have got the wrong end of the stick here... nobody, or at least not me, is having a go at what you've said. All we can do on a site like this is post our...

Someone on here has got that as their Signature Nathan

thank goodness you were nt left the cat!

i hope you mean on the morning after, not on way back home from pub!

There are some very small ones at the Savill Gardens - can't remember their names, but will try to find out. Somehow managed not to see your post before this, Waco!! D'uh! So I've been searching and ended up with what both of you had alrady found!!The Savill Gardens site was no use at all - but...

Thanks for all of those tips, I'll take them on board.

blow the needle on to the grass then suck up

OMG! What a perfect answer! :D

I tried to reply to this a couple of days ago, but the site wouldn't let me!! Anyway - I thoroughly agree with Hans - great stuff, downloaded, printed off, read, and filed!! Thanks, PeterS :D

It's taken long enough, TLG!!

Liz, I've got a Ficus Religiosa, dont think thats a banyan tree but its similar. Peepul Tree, Never grown any aerial roots, guess it needs to get bigger and more humidity.

that's what I call a practical gardener!! got to be realistic, haven't you! :D

I once went to a talk about worms and compost and it seems that earthworms and compost woms are entirely diferent so it may not do any good to put composty worms on the garden.

Is it worth considering renting rather than buying? And informally instead of formally, to keep solicitors from profitingout of it? My in-laws did this, had great use of the estra area for veg, and it returned to the original owners when my f-i-law died, and there was nobody to make good use...

completely agree with TLG - get stout gloves, hack brambles back, chop into small bits to pout in bags to take to tip, then dig out the roots - deep!! As for nettles - their roots spread a lot too - very yellow and fibrous - dig it ALL out, and compost it if you can - otherwise - local tip, for...

Amazing and interesting what you can find in rubbish, Liz.

Thanks for all the help, will wait till they hit the garden centres. cheers
