Just beyond the foxgloves is a seven foot deep drainage ditch which runs the length of a parking space and double garage. The bit I've cleared is fairly flat from the bottom of the hedgerow bank to the road but the whole lot is about four car lengths. As for the muscly helper, he can ussually be...

Hi Steve Its usual to prune back winter jasmine quite hard staright after flowering, probably too late now, may lose next years flowers, but if its out of shape you could still do it. Cut back to pair of leaves as far as you like to a pleasing shape.

Hi Arwyn Its usual to use a sulphur candle at the end of the growing season or late winter/early spring before things get going. Are you leaving your green house behind & "cleaning" it for the new people (aah, that's really thoughtful )? If you want to do it in December/January time, thats...

Hi all, thank you for your compliments. It is planted with love, I think, a handful of family to help with the work & 3 generations of family to consume. :D :D :D It is hard work but there is nothing like fresh from the garden. We are blessed with the most wonderful light...
