Nepetas are much more reliable, easy to divide and equally popular with bees. I avoided them for many years thinking that my neighbour’s cat would show an interest but this...

    What's your weather like 2026

    Flood warning lifted but still so much water out there and then rain forecast again. Nearly had a spring day today. Please can it last?

    You can always block out their faces to make them sort of 'anonymous' , but if they're in the distance and nobody can make out who they are it should not matter.

    If you want something unusual try Ugni. They are related to blueberries but the fruit ripen much later and have a fragrant taste - we liked them, more for snacking on than pies I suspect. I bought the variegated one and have it in my front garden. I think it would be OK in a pot.
