    Yesterday pm I got into the greenhouse, pricked on a number of tomato seedlings. Hope they will cope with the double shock, of coming out of the propagator as well as the roots disturbance. No choice really as there's not enough space to leave them in the propagator any longer.

    Cordyline Australis: Is this dead?

    That looks very similar to the one my brother has. We had colder than -5c here this year and it suggests burgandy spires can only take a lite frost, so perhaps similar cultivars are the same.

    Removing Ivy from Fence and ground

    Get the ivy off the fence. It will work its way through the paneling and eventually damage it as well as upsetting your neighbour.
