Yes - they'll take very hard pruning. I don't think it's a very suitable plant for wooden fences though. They're best on house walls/buildings,...
That's a pity about your Fatsia @ViewAhead . I get some brown spotting every year on a few leaves, but otherwise, they're no problem. I have one...
We don't get those plume moths here, unfortunately. I'd like to see one in real life. It seems the very few areas up here that get them are...
I've seen that in books etc @Songbird , but not in real life. Can't remember what it is though - sorry. I'm sure someone will help though.Is...
I agree - a multi purpose compost will be fine if it's just annuals @NoviceGardener2023 , but a heftier mix in spring will be better for lasting...
Little dianthus I got as a plug last year- Mendlesham Minx, thriving well. [ATTACH]I got 3 different types, but they were in those damn teabags...
Glad you're ok @hailbopp - we're fine too thanks. I wasn't sure exactly how exposed your site was up there. Like you, loads of branches off...
I got quite a bit of painting done in the shed yesterday, so it's looking a lot better. I don't think the wee spiders were very pleased with me...
Your ears must have been burning @hailbopp! I was just about to message you to see if you were ok after the storm as I hadn't seen any posts by...
I have one outdoor plant which is tucked agai nst a fence near the house for protection. I've just taken more flowers off the stems as they have...
Ah- I see what you mean @JennyJB . I thought it was just brought inside because of the wind/storm warning, but you could be right! I've also grown...
If you're in a drier area @AndyG99 [apologies if you've already given your location] and would therefore rely on self watering, that can be...
What a bl**dy saga @Tidemark . Perhaps the neighbour will be luckier, but you're probably hoping they won't! I know the feeling. I keep hoping...
I got several things done yesterday, including removing the bit of conifer- along with a few more larger bits while I was there, but needed a saw....
Always harder when you're rural/semi rural @AndyG99, and sometimes you have to go with the flow a bit more, and accept that things get in where...
Colour is the only thing that matters for me. I can't smell anything anyway, unless my nose is right next to them!
Once you get proper rain @AndyG99 , it'll green up. You may find it easier to avoid any treatment next year, because you've probably got rid of...
A couple of years ago, when we had a very hot, dry summer, I moved a pot of white ones over beside my shed, where it got hardly any sun at all...
I'd agree with @pete - it just looks a bit unwell generally @Bee . The compost/soil level also looks low, so they're may not be enough sustenance...
It often depends on the variety @Baalmaiden, but yes - you have to do a lot of footering about with them to get long, single stems. It's often...
Separate names with a comma.
