Hi Salisbury S, and a very warm welcome to the forum. I started gardening about 12 years ago. I had no idea what I wanted. So I looked through a...
LongK - my problem is not just space for overwintering plants, but space for displaying them in the summer as well. Perhaps I should be growing...
Thanks Cinnamon. [ATTACH] I had to Google Zamioculcas - then realised it was the ZZ plant, which is an easier name to remember. Its rather fun...
Only just seen this Kristen - excellent alert. But so sad - clearly a good nursery with a lot of unusual stuff.
Well done Cinnamon. They are lovely plants - I have one about 6 inches high. They have beautiful glossy green leaves.
Thats very kind Longk. But again the problem comes back to space. I am currently trying to cut down. In previous years two rooms of my house have...
Beautiful Pete - and the leaves look so healthy. My Brugmansia leaves look really tatty. Very nice LongK - I especially like the Sesbania. And...
Hi Alex - and a very warm welcome to GC.I also know nothing about tea plants - but there are many of us on here that love trying new things. I...
No it overwintered as a tuber. But you have raised an interesting point - can a Dahlia overwinter in the green? Going further, what...
Nigel - that's a fascinating picture - to see it in its full height as nature intended - lovely. I hadn't realised that the flowers are only at...
That thought had passed through my mind - but I doubt that its the company executives first priority. As they are strong chemicals, I suspect its...
Lovely LongK. I was going to ask what it was in the earlier photo. I knew I recognised it, but I just couldn't put a name to it. Pink Mandevilla...
I must read the labels a bit more - I don't remember seeing the comment about a max of 4 sprayings. The people who really know about bug control...
Did I really say Arums :scratch: - yes I did mean Aroids - my apologies. I am spending too long breathing in Brugmansia fumes. :rolleyespink: I...
Kristen - I love the stems of those arums - especially A. tortuosum. Sauromatum venosum is a new one on me - very interesting. And those bamboos...
Kristen - excellent introduction to large leaves - worth of a thread in its own right. But they do need space.
Another aspect that I like about I. quamoclit is that the foliage is quite different from other Ipomeas. There is some variation, as this picture...
Kristen - I did think about that when I wrote. I was implying that it was half the area in which case three times as many flowers would be good...
Yes Joolz - they are species and will grow true; I got the seeds from Chiltern. Being species, the flower is relatively small compared to the...
LongK - I am amazed at your B. sanguinea still flowering - its flower does beat all the other Brugs. Ipomea tricolor 'Heavenly Blue'. I can't...
