Propagation This Month

Thank you, Lolimac and Pamsdish @Lolimac,Cuttings are Forsythia,Viburnum tinus And a Choisya, the Choisya got a lot of wind damage and the root ball is bad so i got so cutting a few weeks back just in case it may died ie: 10 per pot, so if i know it will be about, say 10 weeks for them to put...

It's a bit crowded in my grow box....

Internet revolution???? Most French websites showcase their products and that's your lot. No prices, no order forms, sometimes a discreet section on nearest stockists if you're lucky. Some of the bigger sites are into delivery to a nearby grocery, but it still costs the earth. Colossal NI...

Not these is it?

Well, the vermiculite was delivered today; stopping compost compaction is one of the key things I want from it really, and if it retains moisture whilst at it, so much the better.

I'm shy about naming duds as it may be me that is at fault ... but there again I think the seed companies rely on that a bit.I grew about a dozen varieties of Delphinium last year. Identical mini seed trays, sown at the same time, side by side, chilled for several months over winter and then...

I tend to agree with Madahhlia on this . I find Ebay very easy to search and purchase on , I seem to get the majority of my seeds from there now. I know lots on here like Chiltern seeds , but I did find them high cost . Then again they do have a huge range of seeds.

I see that he has Alstromeria psittacina. Ask about it next time that you're there - it's one that I really recommend.

It's very important to ferment your tomatoes

I completely forgot all about them, in fact the pips are still on top of the harvested, dried garlic in the greenhouse. Must get them done this week.. You've got a great start on those then Scrungee. Steve...

That's how much we got ours for - well done!

That's kind! If I kill mine I may have to take you up on it!

Sorry to hear that. My credit card company has always taken my word for it when a transaction has gone wrong and refunded my account and then, presumably, gone after the supplier. With credit card (as distinct from debit card I believe) the transaction is with the credit card company, so no...

Ah, thanks for that. Perennial ones'd be cool.

Thanks for that

You will be safe as long as you are not a mollusc.....

here you go some of the photos are hard to judge but the holes in photo 1, 3 and 4 are all big enough to fit a medium sized dog through the other photos are areas which need a new hedge all together.

Cuttings taken in September, in the main, I would be inclined to leave in the original pot until next year. Potting on means they will have minimal root, for the pot size, and a risk that they cannot easily handle the amount of water that the pot can hold - meaning that they run the risk of...

very grateful for your help cj thanks. regards nijinski

Photos of D.parviflora (reliably hardy) and D.lutea (untested hardiness wise as the first year) are here. PM me an address if they interest you. I also have seed for D. x mertonensis (Hairy Foxglove) which is in the same post.
