    An Algarve Garden 2024 to 2026

    The scent was so strong on the Brug today it was almost overpowering in the house at least 20 meters away. Needless to say, the house smells heavenly.

    Am i understanding this correctly ?

    It didn't strike me that way at all. Just someone asking for advice, concerned about doing the wrong thing for their plants. In my book that is being sensitive to a plant's needs.:)

    I'd forgotten about the clocks changing when I woke up and as OH had already left, I didn't know whether he had changed the sitting/kitchen room ones before he left or not. I also couldn't remember whether smartphones automatically changed so didn't want to rely on that time.I was very confused!

    Phormium which one

    Phormiums can suffer in cold, wet winters, especially if you have clay soil. I thought of Yucca as an alternative too. They have an upright, less arching habit so might suit you better.
