Indeed, Israel as a country nowadays is rather interesting.There were some stories about Soviet Union people moving into Israel en masse as they were of the religion, nothing to do with Soviet Union vs. The West presumably .It's just so sad that when we emerged from the horrors of the...

Welcome @singer61

I'd not over complicate. Just a large crock over the hole in the pot and mix 25% of grit with JI no3, it should be ok just raise the pot on feet in winter if its very wet.I prefer a well drained compost throughout rather than all the drainage at the bottom which just takes up space.

So much depends on your situation and what you are prepared to accept in a garden. Ivy is certainly an excellent addition for the reasons mentioned above but it can prove a total PITA for some. If you use a weedkiller on the leaves, it sometimes helps to scratch/scrape the leaves before...

The height is mostly dependant on the support, its not capable of holding itself up as such. Its a climber.

Happens every year with our Magpies, even our Blackbird has tried pulling Trachy fibres off. It does no harm to the plant to the plant all.

Plant a few else where in case a couple die after planting and you can replace them.

Many thanks @shiney, I will upload more pictures as it hopefully gets new growth. For now, here's a pic that shows how the branches hang. Maybe it's a willow, not a corkscrew willow?

I love Pyracanthas and, if I am being honest, don't really care for Nandinas, though I understand your point about symmetry @BOSullivan If there is enough space, how about you plant a Pyracantha on the other side as well, to achieve the symmetry? Jokes aside, if you don't want the pyracantha,...

A bit earlier this year I'm thinking lots of things are, its been chilly but frosts have been rare or very light since mid January.

You can reseed four weeks after using Mo Bacter but it kills moss, not weeds. If you have only a few weeds you could treat these individually with a lawn weedkiller often sold in a spray bottle. If there are more than a few, consider using a weed and feed product like Miracle Gro 4 in 1 which...

I used the granular from Mo Bacter for the first time last year. It did seem to kill the moss, there is less of it this year despite the wet winter.
