Its a widger ...... well, its name is not much of a clue! Cross between a trowel and a dibber, and as you say great for levering out narrow...
Just Day Lillies? or Lily Lillies :heehee: too? (I have suggestions for the later, but not the former)
I potted mine to 9cm on arrival, and then 1L later in the season (when pot-bound) and then I planted out 2nd year in May (June would be better)...
If you have the space, which is free of disease, that's a lot easier for sure. Seems to me to be ironic that you would have to grow a garlic crop...
Have you heard of the idea of watering the soil with a garlic (or onion presumably) solution? The idea is that white rot thinks that there is a...
£7 ones from a specialist nursery will be a foot too. You can pay more, buy taller, of course. But if it is a year or two until you will actually...
Cultivation and general improvement of the soil (e.g. to make it into a garden :) ) will also help. Once it gets to the point of there only being...
I'd skip them. I've heard that the cheap ones are grafted onto Korean rootstocks, and they are prone to giving up after 7 years or so (just when...
Although ... I take the view that I should be able to re-use my self-saved bulbs for years, so periodically buying in new stock it makes sense to...
I have always used John Arthus Bowers (JAB) Multi Purpose - it is relatively cheap, I buy it from local garden centre (when on special offer), I...
I wonder if I will this year too ... or if I will overcome that feeling?!!
Chinese grasses? "Mice tasty grass" :heehee:I've got one that looks just like that, pulled the label to check the name ... "Ladybird" ... cue...
I don't bother (not that that is a recommendation!). Nurturing a few plants into Year 2 to get seed, and then they are cluttering up my crop...
AgreedNitrogen rich? Brassicas like that - and should help keep them green. No harm watering them if you haven't had rain for a while.
I don't think it is part of the registration form, so folk have to have the inclination to go find the Personal Details page and edit it. I'd...
I expect others will disagree with me, but I think that "Sutherland Gold" is a weak & puny cultivar, not a patch on S. racemosa aurea of old (that...
If they flower late, or are rather feeble from being planted late, I would snap off any flowers before they open to conserve energy for next year....
Japanese ones? I would buy from a reputable nursery, immediately, as small planted. Probably around £7.50 each. Pot on, using ericaceous...
I take a stronger view. Once Lavender gets woody then it will look a mess, and it will not recover from being cut back into older wood, so you...
I am sure it will be OK in future years but, being young, it looks as though the stems are quite thin, and have grown well, and when the flowers...
