    Where should I plant these Herbaceous Perrenials?

    Then just plant them on the ground. The ridge is only for heavy, waterlogged clay soil.

    When to plant seed grown Daisy’s in the garden?

    I'm not sure it looks a bit like an argyranthemum to me. If it is I'd hold off until things warm up, I dont think it would appreciate a frost.

    What's wrong with my courgettes?

    I forgot to add that some varieties of courgettes that produce yellow fruits have yellowish leaves, that cause some gardeners to think they have a problem, but that's not the case here.
