Jane, I inherited a stepdaughter when I married Mrs Piglet, who is now 26 and hasnt really shown any interest in gardening until the past year when she often popped down to our plots to see us at weekends, and quite often half heartedly joined in for a while. This grew into having some tomatoes in g...

With the broom Grock, with the broom ,

I have never grown comfrey before either. Is it really worth all the hype that people attach to it. I may be able to find some room for it if so. Are plants best or growing from seed?

Can anyone suggest a decent early pea that I can sow every fortnight or so for succession that doesnt need too much support and keeps to 3 foot or so.

We are going on the Sunday morning early doors and may pick up a couple of varieties to try in my barrels, as the bulk of our varieties are bought and chitting in the workshop. How can something as simple as picking a t...

I agree Chez, that sounds most scrumptious, please post that recipe.

Piglet
