All clay here @Alisa , but it's all been improved in the 12 years I've been here with manure and compost. I still don't put many bulbs in the...
King's Seeds are good value for veg seeds @katecat58 . More in the pack than other outlets, and cheaper too. I got mine from there. I picked more...
We get wasps nesting every year @Perki , but they never bother me. Maybe I don't smell nice to them! I do have a red admiral butterfly who keeps...
Yes - a lot of the stuff originates in China anyway @shiney, and then the seller is UK . It just comes down to what you're looking for and whether...
Got my grass cut and edged etc yesterday afternoon. We had a good wind [ideal for the washing!] and even some sun for a few hours, so it was ideal...
I made several mistakes when I first did the competition @Friendly :biggrin:I must admit - I thought your pic didn't look like a September one -...
Mine are all suddenly ripening [in gr'house] but I eat a lot of them straight from the plant. If you like the Sungold, as suggested by @CarolineL...
I mainly use Peter Nyssen for my bulbs @Selleri , although there are many good online suppliers, and decent GCs should have them too. I rarely go...
I expect the whites do revert to the more common pale pink @Goldenlily26 - I'm assuming that's what you meant in your post yesterday? Many white...

That's interesting @shiney , re the PayPal thing. I'll be aware of that in future! I've rarely had problems with companies online until the two...
I find it very odd that this man thinks it's ok to just do what he wants if they aren't his property @Anon74 . If he hasn't fully removed the ivy...
I have quite a few of the rusted ones @CarolineL , including some of the taller, round ones for peonies etc. I use one of those for the very tall...
If you're in one of those very dry, hotter areas @Anon74, that certainly affects the foliage and it'll drop earlier. It's possible that the ivy...
I don't think many of my cyclamen will get carried by ants @Goldenlily26 , as they aren't in great numbers here, but yes, they certainly do that....
I'd say the phrase 'taking the p*ss' is applicable for your situation @Tidemark. The advantage of credit card payments is exactly that - you can...
I've not bought many plants this year, but I wanted a white clematis for the right hand side of my pergola. I have one of the early macropetalas...
Long tailed tits are one of my favourite birds @strongylodon. You were quick to get those pix! They're so speedy. Gorgeous wee things. Funnily...
Steady on @pete - cutting your grass. Whatever next! :heehee: Mine needs done, but if this mild weather keeps going, it might need done again. It...
