Forgot to introduce myself

Sorry! I was rude and asked a question before having introduced myself. My wife and I have been gardening for 40 years and have been totally organic for over 20 years. There is always something new to learn and we are lucky enough to regularly find new plants appearing in our garden - thank you birds. We have learnt that when something pops up in the garden we leave it to grow so we can make a decision on whether to keep it or not. This year we have found 7 wild, bee orchids near the bottom of our garden! anyone know how we can help them spread?

Nathan, I have only read the first two pages of messages on the Webmaster page. Thanks for setting up the site. I have a question for you that might have already been asked on a page I haven't seen. If you are number 2, who is number 1?

 

Thanks for info Hornbeam. We don't mow that area until the seeds from our variety of different coloured cowslips have set so we can always extend the timing. We are totally organic so no fertilisers or weedkillers. I see you are Herts Essex border - so are we. Maybe we are neighbours.
How do I send photo?
I'll try and find you in wildflower as Poppy suggests. Thank you Poppy.

 

Thanks Banana Man. That makes three of us, but I'm almost over the border into Herts.

 

Hi Neighbour Hornbeam.

Your just down the road. I'm at Hatfield Heath and have been here over 30 years.

 

Hi Hornbeam

You would be most welcome to pop in for a cuppa and a look round the garden.

Thanks purplelady.

I see you've been busy greeting everyone. Sorry it took so long to reply. I've been chasing mice in the loft.

Hi michaelmasdaisy

Maslens were taken over by Coopers a couple of years ago. Although they have kept some of its character they have streamlined it and made it more efficient - I rarely go there now.

I'm always interested in local history, and gossip - not fussy which!

Thanks
