I deplore the monetisation of everything. If housing was considered a basic human right, rather than just another way to make money, we wouldn't...
I think the NHS was certainly a product of its time and based around the idea of a decent standard of health (ie not being unable to get treatment...
Looks like one of the large family of moth caterpillars known as cutworms that feed on low growing plants. They aren't usually a problem in...
Makes one wonder who reads a book about the ramblings from a former British PM who lasted about a month before being kicked out due to being so...
You often don't see the damage until much later. Touch wood, the vast majority of my newly planted things have survived (though I did choose AGM...
Beautiful! Seems very early though? English bluebells - in the South at least - are usually at their peak in late April/early May.
Nick CLWhich is absurd, really, if you think about it. I would get the civil liberties argument, if it wasn't for the fact that you need to...

Probably a muntjac. My guess is they're after the tender, nutritious shoots and buds of various plants at this time of year, of which there is no...

I never used to have an issue with it, it worked really well for me. Last year's didn't look or feel particularly different but I think it just...
I've really struggled with the peat free ones, particularly the New Horizons one. It used to be pretty good and I thought "thats great, they have...
I find hollyhocks really cheerful, too. They're so stately, bees love them and always come out covered in pollen, and they make the space feel...
Erigeron (hence the username), hardy geraniums. They just seem to liven up any grey space, pretty tough and don't really have an unsightly period,...
Not sure if it quite comes under the theme of "looking good" but amazed to see an unopened rudbeckia flower, and a (scabious?) flowering in my...
