What is that yellow thing anyway? It might be "interesting" but not exactly an object of beauty. Goes nice with the ivy, though! ;)
Oh dear, I've heard that kidney stones can be very painful. Hope you're better soon.
That is, verily, a pullet of the primavera!
They don't look like old hands. Mine look about 90. Wished mine look like girly hands, everything considered.
I plant point upwards, on a bed of sand or grit if available, if not, so be it. The grit is to improve drainage below the bulb. The rationale...
They are nice hands! I wear gloves these days - the sort made of cotton jersey with rubberised palms and fingers. They are OK when brand new but...
Don't move the verbascum, it'll be nice. Probably yellow candelabra flowers on it. Pull it out after it's flowered and scattered a few seeds.
I've been labouring under the burning midday sun, getting a few more seeds into the allotment. Mad dogs and Welshwomen! Hope I've not got burnt, I...
I think you are right. Tell us your secret of lovely hands, Shines. Mine are like gnarled, horny, orc hands with grime-encrusted talons for nails!...
I think the one in the middle is a heather? Or a self sown evergreen of some sort? Two choices, really: 1.Take the heather out and let the other...

TBH I can't see a peony at all. Or a ceanothus. I can see a buddleia, a large leaf rosette which might be a foxglove but could also be several...
Still not done anything about it. I need to tidy up my laptop in general. I will have to do something soon as I'm desperate to watch Game of...
I agree. How about courgettes, for example? Easy to grow, can be placed outdoors, will be fruiting by July and very prolific.
No wonder that hen looks so plump and glossy!
Glad you liked it! Bear in mind that I only put down what I could think of on the spur of the moment, there are many more that are potentially...
Sometimes I've germinated them on paper. Seems that keeping them warm and barely moist is they key to getting them germinated before they rot off...
Keep it, it'll be nice. And then you'll get more!
