Hi - Thinking about what I said, it has occurred to me that it might be the fact that the plants were confined which caused them to grow so compactly. As the pots were standing on a grassy area, some of their roots grew through the drainage holes into the soil below which could have helped the devel...

Hi Iain,
I have had quite a lot of good stuff from Harrod Horticultural, and they seem quite efficient and reasonable in price. Their website is www.harrodhorticultural.com

Sumach leaves
A neighbour's sumach tree overhangs my garden, and I am wondering if its falling leaves are O.K. to add to the leaf-mould container - I read somewhere that all parts of the sumach tree are poisonous, but don't know how true this is. Any ideas, anyone?
Regards, Lyn.

Those are memories to treasure! I remember standing on a harbour wall in Cornwall with my children when they were small, watching a magnificent conger eel catching and eating fish in the incredibly clear water.

Apart from making a very nice herbal tea from the combined dried leaves of lemon verbena, mint and lemon balm, I usually just use the leaves in pot-pourri, and also mix them with dried lavender and r...

Hi Sue - I have overwintered mine, in its large pot, in a cold greenhouse for the past ten years, and bring it out each spring. As a precaution I always cover the whole shrub with a large sheet of fleece or bubble-wrap, and also I wrap bubble-wrap around the pot to insulate it. When the leaves drop,...
