The native rowans here aren't far away from having totally red berries @Allotment Boy . They've been orange for a couple of weeks. That's early -...
There are certainly plenty of varieties of Ammi and they're quite easy from seed. I think cow parsley was being grown in some of the Chelsea...
I agree re the endless cooking @NigelJ . Cooking for young children/family etc for decades leaves you a bit fed up with it all. I don't really buy...
I think I misunderstood your original post @hydrogardener - I just thought you were describing it and needing an ID! Apologies. I looked it up....
As @NigelJ has said - they grow in damp, and even boggy ground, so a pot is always going to be difficult. An easier solution is to keep a tray or...
I decided to try that Grazers stuff last year @NigelJ , just to see if it made any difference to the lily beetle problem - which we never used to...
That's interesting @Sheal . I'm not tech savvy enough to know the reasons, but it must just be a glitch of some kind. I've not had the problem...
Nice snapdragon @NigelJ . Your henryii lilies are a bit further on than mine, but they're coming away now. They're supposed to be lily beetle...

Looking really good now @Selleri. You'll get such a lot of enjoyment from it, and watching everything using it. :) I was working around my pond...
After discussing the absence of tortoiseshells, their ears [antennae?] must have been burning yesterday, as one appeared in the garden and was...
I just use New Posts @RedFox21 and I actually just keep it [New Posts] bookmarked , and click on that each time. :smile: If you click on new...
Nice to have housemartins @Victoria . We don't really get them round here - just swallows, although my sister [across the other side of Scotland]...
As @AnniD says - it depends on your general growing conditions and climate, as well as location, as to how big or small any plant will be - not...
The first thing to do is to prep all the area properly. I doubt it'll be very hospitable for planting. That means by late summer/early autumn,...
Loads of bees around - the borage is particularly good for them [ATTACH]but they like the chives too[ATTACH]More hoverflies around now too,...
It's damp/smirry here, but I'll get my walk and then see what's what. I love the fact they're giving us a yellow warning for rain today [and...
I've never seen goldfinches eat the seedheads on my davidiis either, and we have a regular set of visitors. There's one plant that I can't easily...
