Didn't do much yesterday as I was away, and I'd been awake since 4am, but I did a little bit of the concreting at the shed corner -it'll need...
Clear, frosty start. O'night low of 2 degrees [ 2 just now at approx. 7.20 am] with a predicted high of about 11 or 12, although I think it'll be...
I wouldn't be put off birches either. The wind just blows most of the foliage away anyway! It does pay to have a good site for them though,...
I wasn't criticising @Alpine2 - it was just in case you hadn't noticed. Most people tend to start new threads if they're looking for ideas, and...
The PVA I have came from a builder @pete, so it's pretty good. I've sued it successfully for various things outside. I did a small terra pot...
I didn't do much yesterday. Potted on a few things in the shed when the rain was heavier, and sorted some pots out while it wasn't too wet. I have...
That's a pity your walking is limited @Sheal. I'm not sure what I'd do if I couldn't walk. I try not to think about that. I've added a few more...
I PVA ed some of mine before using the masonry paint, but that didn't make a lot of difference either. No idea why some stuff works better than...
The thread is over 16 years old @Alpine2 , so I expect they've found something! Tiarellas, Heucheras and Heucherellas are certainly good in shady...
The pink Jap. anems always seem to spread more easily, especially in lighter soil. They aren't a problem round here, as we don't have light soil,...
Another cloudy start, although no proper mist today. O'night low was 9 degrees [10 just now at approx. 8.20 am] with a predicted high of about 13,...
All you can do is keep an eye on them, and hope that the autumn/winter weather will benefit. Ling, which is what you have, is pretty hard to kill...
Hopefully, your balcony garden will help with everything you're struggling with @Deneice . If you have problems with any plants, it's also worth...
I've used masonry paint on pots @ClematisDbee , but strangely, it didn't work well. Fine on the house! I've often used some of the fence/garden...
I can highly recommend Glen Tilt [Blair Atholl] @Sheal - you wouldn't have to do the hills ;) Bit of a drive for you perhaps, but a lovely glen...
Not sure if I'll do much out there today. I got some more bulbs planted yesterday, after sorting out pots for them etc, and removed the single tom...
Another cloudy, murky start here, although it was dark until ten mins ago, so I couldn't really see much. O'night low was 9 degrees [10 just now...
If you don't have enough room to keep that one and have another, then maybe you have to choose something easier that you can safely grow without...
Yes - most Crocosmias don't really get any bigger than that @ButtercupDays, apart from Lucifer, but the OP said that Achilleas were too tall, and...
I think they sound like Aconites too. They flower in spring - and the exact timing depends on location, as with many plants. There are loads of...
