My runners and french beans still have quite a few left on but they don’t look very good. It doesn’t matter to much though as we have frozen some and haven’t got any… -

Brilliant day today, raining at 6 am and has rained all day 7pm, so not a lot done, but let’s look on the bright side all my water barrels are full for free. The wind hasn’t been so bad but the rain is so heavy it’s just flattening everything. When this lots blown over I think a big clean up will be called for.

yip Nightnight Frank

Has anyone read this in today’s paper regarding poisonous courgettes? apparently dozens of people have been affected by these described as a rogue batch of homegrown courgettes. The 64-year old chap suffered sickness and diarrhoea and even hallucinations as a result of toxic squash syndrome. He only swallowed a small piece as ther tasted so…[Read more]

I cant belive these Salvia Hot Lips and Pink Lips, I bought these at castle Howard G/C autumn last year they were selling them off. I just potted them up to larger pots…-
Love this…have it at the Pres

Hi Frank. Google salvia cuttings and go to Gds World where it shows you how and when to do it. You can also try rooting some stems in water and be patient.

Yes I don’t envy you in London Anne when it’s humid and very warm as well it must be very uncomfortable it is bad enough here on the coast when it`s like that, too hot to sleep. Anyway, the sea fret has gone today just a bit damp and overcast, supposed to be picking up as the week goes by heres hoping.

I have deadheaded the baskets today Anne and they look rubbish, I am just giving them a short while to see if they pick up ( which I doubt) then I will take them down….-

Evening all, well just had another dull and dreary day, only about 15 deg in a North Easterly brisk breeze and very thick sea fret, we have had this for a week now. Hanging basket petunias are dying off faster than I can dead head them I dont know how much longer I can keep them going. With the fret it is so wet just like heavy drizzle all day…[Read more]

Odd isn’t it Frank. I haven’t managed baskets at all this year, and just one with a white Pelargonium in it has done well. Yours were lovely till they were upset by…
