Other Plants

They should go on to flower ok, but they often get rust which is not good and more likely on overwintered plants. Perhaps just grow a few more to add, just in case.

Hello @Clare GThanks for the Reply and the information, much appreciated.The Fence they are Growing on is only 3' High with 3 Horizontal Support Wires which I am hoping to Train them on.ThanksKevin

Thanks John @JWK , I couldn't find it earlier.

Hello @ricky101Thanks for the Reply.I have just been out and Moved the Fern, I had to Dig quite a Large Hole to get the Fern out but it is now Moved, so, all Good.I have added BF&B and Watered it Well, hopefully it will be Fine.The Fern is not Big enough to warrant Dividing so I have...

Being dry won't hurt them any further, you need to get rid of all that damaged foliage though.If the plants are a few years old they should flower. Mine flowered very quickly - much, much quicker than the Amaryllis which still have buds quite low down. .

No its the plant that gets Aerial roots, not you.Some Fig trees are known for starting life as an epiphyte up in the branches of trees, they then grow roots down to the ground and "strangle" the tree they started out living on, eventually killing it. They are sometimes called "strangler"...

Hello allJust a quick Update.I have just had a closer look and it appears that the Main Trunk has been Split to below Ground Level I have Removed it and have Ordered a Replacement.ThanksKevin

HelloThanks for the Reply.I just need for the Rain to ease off to give the Soil a chance to Dry out.As I said previously, the Area is not easy to get to and I would prefer not to Walk on Wet Soil to get there.Also, I need the Soil to Dry somewhat so I can Clear the Area of Weeds before...

I don’t think it’ s wilting, just shedding a few excess buds. It will have been a bit of a shock being transferred from light, cool conditions to darker, warmer and dryer ones. It sounds as though you ’ve got the watering right so, as Ricky says, a bit of ambient humidity should help.

Thaks for the advice.i think i will hold back a bit.

I have one of these:bought for overwintering some hoya babies last winter. I placed heating mat on the bottom of the transparent box, then plants were on the tray above the mat. Roots of plants died. This year I placed the mat sideways in the box just to work as radiator, I keep it on minimum,...

Thanks for the advice I have left it alone and placed it in a larger pot for support as suggested and it looks fine with no loss of leaves yet which is what usually happens so fingers crossed.

I have 3 Pinokkio plus others I'm hoping I will successfully grow these beautiful plants . I will let you know what happens ,Perki your garden with the Alliums is lovely.....I'm Very envious everything looks so well managed .Thank you to everyone else too for giving me the...

Yes, hopefully they will arrive before end December. Do you know of any stories where they haven't bloomed because they were planted in late nov?

Yes I have found you need roots attached to all divisions, its very easy to end up with all the roots attached to one section.

The usual one doesn't need sun to change colour, but the one you have needs more sun. I expect that's the problem. When it's very mild, many plants take longer to change and colour up too. It's been very mild here and all the trees have been very slow to do that, and are holding their leaves...

Yes ,for one shilling & six pence.

And very long lived too.

Thanks everyone, some interesting ideas here, I'll definitely try some of these. Unfortunately Dahlias and Echinaceas are a no as the slugs and snails here eat them as soon as they try poking out of the ground. I have anemone 'Crispy Curly' given to me by my sister which is pretty well behaved...

No problem there, I know that Cyclamen take at least nine months to flower. I just like the pleasure of growing something which I can enjoy.
