I have 2 bays in pots by my front door and they've not grown over the last 6 months either - but I wouldn't expect them to during autumn and...
There's a wholesale nursery just down the road from me. They don't take kindly to spending their time advising about plants, but if you know what...
It's a good looking tree. Best time to prune is after all risk of frosts have passed, so late Spring just before flowering. But they don't need...
I think seedlings of most plants are fair game to such molluscs. The new, soft, tender leaves haven't yet developed any defences. I've noticed a...
What an interesting question...I don't know, but could take a few guessesThe compounds found in certain plants that naturally deter slugs may...

Opt 3 sounds best to me. You could also use it as a weed suppressant around other plants. The blackbirds will still chuck it around though...

We've had no rain in weeks here! Not possible to pull weeds as the ground is rock hard and plants are wilting, so I have been watering the garden...
