    My eight year old granddaughter Ava asked me to help her make a Fairy Garden to be a Christmas gift for her mum. We used some material I had around the greenhouse and driftwood from a local lake. I managed to find a figurine at a local nursery to complete the project and Ava is thrilled with the results. I found this to be an enjoyable process and have already started one for myself.

              This pastime could get to be habit forming, but this is definitely the last one. :smile:

                Is Fairy Liquid safe to use on roses with greenfly?
