    What are we doing in the garden 2026

    Thank you @Busy-Lizzie, the challenge now is to find flowering plants that don’t lean :). Grasses and Nepetas are fine and the Rudbeckias I got this week should be OK in the sunniest area.

    Green happy shop for seeds

    Thanks for the tip. Will definitely try them next year. I usually order from Chiltern Seeds but are unhappy with the germination rate as soon as cultivars are used.
