    Recommendations for quality compost?

    Any recommendations for a good quality compost for growing vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers? Last year was a disaster and the compost I purchased was infested with fungus gnats.

    What are we doing in the garden 2026

    The bulbs are usually planted outdoors in autumn. Unless you have heavy clay soil which is wet they should be fine planted in your borders now.

    Gardens and Pretty Places we have visited

    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.

    Potted Blueberries and honeyberries experiences ?

    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...
    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.
