Whilst I see the point being made, that falls apart in reality as there are many women who are simply looking to get their leg over and they do not care from who. Sure, there are some who are somewhat more choosy, just as there are men (I am one!) - over the years, I've seen both men and women...

I have grown them from seed now and then over the years, but can't remember what I did. Germination was variable, but I had some successes. I often use vermiculite for tiny seeds or those that need light to germinate and it does work very well.I asked Google - which you may or may not trust AI...

That looks very nice and better than the first AI suggestion. I was just thinking about adding you to this thread, but then I saw you spotted it already.Looks like garden designers are no longer needed with all that AI thingy Another thought: I would take off the lawn, use it for making...

For us, this year is the 51st year of growing them in the same place.

The last one for now, was on the Thorny olive tree that the bird table and hanging feeder are on. It's another variegated leaf plant. It's quite early in the year to be trying this, but I've got nothing to loose.As you have probably noticed from all the bird photos recently, they have become...

Royal Bumble is a good one too. Dyson’s don’t stock this or any of the Lips series unfortunately. Other less well known varieties can be borderline hardy and require winter protection so be sure to check the RHS hardiness rating.

I’d be surprised if Beth Chatto’s gardeners use slug pellets or insecticides . Birds tend to be vocal here in the morning and out looking for worms mainly early morning and at dusk. Sound for me also includes wind through the trees and swishing through dried grasses in winter.

Thank you Ricky that's what i like the know, i haven't seen that page
