    Hello to everyone -

    I live in Aberdeenshire recently completed complete gareden refurbishment and joining the forum so i can try and find out how to best look after my investments - ie the plants. Looking forward to meeting everyone - today in my garden i have had 2 junior woodpeckers also baby sparrows of which the mother is desperately trying to get them out of the nest house - we have also been lumbered with a very busy bombas (bumble bee nest) it all happens here. Any way if any one can advise me what to do with my Euphorbia Rigida which is looking past there best - should i cut them down ?

    Look forward to hearing from you all

    I cant advise you on your Euphorbia Rigida but I know someone will for sure assist you in your request.

    Hi and welcome. Your garden sounds ace. I always say a garden isn't really a garden if it doesn't have anything buzzing, chirping or fluttering in it. Sounds like you've got the lot.

    Hello Mr Keith Milne and welcome to GC.

    We seem to have a lot of Scottish folk joining us of late ... what's going on up there?

    I have a very dear friend since 1985 by the name of Milne ... never heard it before.

    Hope you enjoy the forum.

    Hi Keith & [​IMG] To GC..!! I think you will plenty of info on here Keith.. As for your Euphorbia, I have several & I cut the spent flower heads off at the base.. They are tough shoot again very quickly, in fact new growth is probably aready coming.. They are very drought tolerant, but I do put the odd can of water on them in the summer when they are growing if the weather is very dry, as they are not in the ground.. Hope that helps..:thmb:
