I'm growing broad beans for the first time this year and one of mine (variety Masterpiece I think) also has blue flowers, though not quite as...
My mum grows mini cucumbers in her greenhouse every year, very successfully. She has 3 in a massive wide pot at the far corner of the greenhouse....
That looks like a lovely shrub and sounds like a fantastic place to garden. I await more pictures of your new plants.
The parcel is safely in front of me as I type. I'll get it in the post to @Aridae on Monday.
Dear Mad Hatter, I was stalked on the internet years ago, so understand a little of what you must be going through. In addition to the advice...
It's still on its way to my place via the Royal SnailMail and hopefully will be here tomorrow. As I'm out tomorrow morning mugging shoppers on...
As per Scrungee's advice above. I'm using those old flower buckets from Morrisons, with lots of holes in, for most of mine this year. Last year...
Wooo hooo! Looking forward to it arriving here. I have a stack of stuff to put in, including heirloom tomatoes, various chilis and a load of...
At least it's in a container. If you see and leaves like that pop up anywhere else, get rid of them and their roots and put them in the bin.
Goodness, you kept quiet about those. Well done on your early harvest. (I shall have words with mine about their poor performance.)
JWK's right. I'm an overwaterer and it brings all sorts of problems. But I also have a variety of tomato called Teton de Venus, which specialises...
I swear at my plants ('Grow, you [obscenity]!'), and that seems to work. But maybe I have rude ones and shiney grows nice polite ones!
Ariadae (and those after her on the list), My gardening friend opposite has various chilis. (I'm not a chilihead myself.) She's been on a date...
Yes, many early varieties of tomato are more cold tolerant than is the norm for tomatoes, but none will survive a temperature below zero.
Hiya Charlie, I think your graft will be a knobbly bit lower down, as the tree would have been grafted when young. It's good to find where the...
It's looking good. A lovely specimen. I'd perhaps google tree supports. It looks like you've attached that very tightly to the support. Your...
@pamsdish, I ran out of envelopes after 11 varieties. :spinning: Hopefully that's enough to be getting on with.
They do look somewhat erotic! I can imagine a non-gardening neighbour glancing over the fence and thinking you'd installed a rude sculpture.
1 and 3 are willowherbs, which are wildflowers/weeds. I think 1 has a nice flower (greater willowherb), but it's too tall for the front of a bed...
Frenchies and Aridae....any requests? I've got various tomato seeds and my local discount store has Sutton's Seeds 4 for £1.
