All I did was chop up the rest of the stuff I'd removed from along the fence - cotoneaster and clematis, while it was dry. I'm revamping that...
Lovely story @hydrogardener. Imprinting in full flow there. :smile:
The best solution is to have as little bare soil as possible. Lots of ground cover. I do hardly any weeding. There's always going to be weeds...
Still quite dark here, but it's cloudy and damp. O'night low was 3 degrees , but that was at around 9pm. Temps went up, so it's currently 7...
I didn't do anything yesterday as everything was frozen. Nothing urgent required anyway. If it stay dry-ish, I'll get the rest of the stuff I cut...
It would also depend where you're going and how far @simone_in_wiltshire. In any case - why should others pay tax and insurance to be on the road,...
I don't really like bark around perennials, if it's the heavier rougher kind, as it tends to sit there staying wet long term. Old compost, or...
They'll gradually grow together and become self supporting. All those 'main' branches will get heftier as they mature and thicken up. You would...
I think they're just trying to keep us on our toes...:heehee:
I don't have one of 'those' phones, but I certainly wouldn't keep it beside my bed. I still use an old fashioned, battery alarm clock @pete ;) I...
Fingers crossed your plant will be fine @CostasK. :thumbsup: I find hylotelephium quite easy to say [and write], it's the new name for dicentra...
A frosty/icy start here. O'night low was minus 5 degrees [minus 5 just now at approx. 8.05am] and the predicted high is around 4 degrees, but not...
I don't protect anything as such either, as I only grow hardy perennials in the ground that I know will cope here. I add compost from spent...
One of those 'oh b*gger' moments @cactus_girl .... Hope you got warmed up quickly. I did some hacking and slashing yesterday, so that was handy....
Cyclists regularly ignore every rule that other road users have to abide by, although many drivers are utterly abhorrent too, but I agree- these...
I agree they were probably in the pot if you got it that recently. They're more common, and mrore problematic, in containers. It's probably not...
I did a good bit of clearing yesterday, emptied the 'daily' compost bin round to the main ones, and cut down the final pot of sw. peas, chopped...
A damp, overcast start here, after a frost last night. O'night low was zero [2 degrees just now at approx. 8.05am] with a predicted high of around...
I also do that @pete, especially if it's for lettuce, and the stuff I have is too old to germinate, or I don't have enough. The supermarkets and...
There are nematode treatments for them, but you need the right conditins/temps for them to work, and this isn't a suitable time of year. For many...
Separate names with a comma.
