We have no choice with our water charges - everyone pays the same [I assume it may vary from region to region] regardless of what they use. It...
Unfortunately, feeding them won't help [and can sometimes make things worse] if they're already struggling, which they clearly are @Georgina...
A pricey trip @Sheal , but worth it if you drive. Eyesight has been in the news a fair bit recently, so it pays [literally!] to have your sight...
If there was a row of hedging [any hedging] which has been removed @Nickoslesteros , that will certainly have made an impact, as @Thevictorian...
I like variegated plants @NigelJ , but the spotted ones are a bridge too far for me :biggrin:I also draw a line at those multi coloured...
There are things like Ajuga which will grow in any aspect @mp78 , and will spread and also trail over the edge a bit, but that can be quite...
The chap everyone loves at parties....the 'Fun Guy'.... [ATTACH]Sorry!
With you on the spotted laurels @Sheal , but I don't like spotted foliage on anything. Always looks sickly to me. I got rid of Pulmonaria in one...
I use Chilterns, Premier, Kings Seeds, Simply Seeds, Marshalls, Suttons and a few others, depending on what I'm looking for and what they have...
Yes - some other evergreens will help. The Yew and Holly might take a bit longer to get going, but they'd be effective once they're established...
It doesn't matter what a plant prefers in terms of soil and water, if it's in a container @mp78. That's totally different from being grown in the...
Beech and Hornbeam basically have the same effect, with their foliage, as they're quite similar - but once they get to around the height you want...
Little and often is for grass cutting, and I'm not sure people here are telling you anything else. Watering is different, and again - I think most...
I think it definitely depends on where a wasps' nest is @Thevictorian . They don't bother me at all, but we had one right above the back door when...
@daisym - sometimes it's the dirt that's holding things together, and when you clean it, the bits don't work the way they should! I'm joking, but...
I agree with @AnniD. A sheltered spot somewhere, in their own pots, and with enough light as @Philippa says. They really wouldn't be big enough...
I think you have a few options with it @Nickoslesteros . You can either keep on trying to keep it happy with lots of mulching and watering, or you...
That's really sad @Thevictorian , re the wasp nest/allotmenteers. You did a really great thing by moving it. The nests are stunning aren't they? I...
There isn't room for anything else in there @mp78 . :smile: All of those will spread, and, depending on the type of heather, it may crowd the...
I get some blotchy leaves on mine @Plantminded , but generally, it's fine, as it's now more mature. Biggest problem is pigeons sitting on the...
